Stop ICE Election Militarization Act

This bill would add immigration officers to an existing federal criminal law that bars members of the U.S. Armed Forces from interfering with elections. Immigration officers would be covered by the same prohibitions and penalties that now apply to military officers and members under that law. The bill would also bar immigration enforcement or removal operations during the 4 weeks before a federal election. Operations during that period would still be allowed if they are based on criminal probable cause tied to a specific person, or if they are needed to prevent imminent death or serious bodily injury.
