A federal district court judge partially blocked a California law barring law enforcement officers from wearing masks in a Feb. 9 ruling, finding the law discriminated against federal officers.
District Court Judge Christina Snyderruledin favor of the Trump administration, prohibiting the state from enforcing its No Secret Police Act—which was scheduled to go into effect earlier this year—against federal law enforcement officers.
The federal government sued California, challenging the law as well as with another law—the No Vigilantes Act, that requires federal officers to wear identification. Snyder ruled that the second law was not discriminatory.
California had agreed to pause enforcement of the laws, which went into effect on Jan. 1, while the Trump administration challenged them in court.
Attorney General Pam Bondi praised the court’s decision on Feb. 9.
“These federal agents are harassed, doxed, obstructed, and attacked on a regular basis just for doing their jobs,”Bondi posted on X.
“We have no tolerance for it. We will continue fighting and winning in court for President Trump’s law-and-order agenda—and we will always have the backs of our great federal law enforcement officers.”
