Noem: Body cameras to be deployed to immigration agents, starting in Minneapolis • Minnesota Reformer
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Monday that body cameras would be given to federal immigration agents across the country, starting in Minneapolis, where two U.S. citizens were shot and killed by agents in the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown.
“As funding is available, the body camera program will be expanded nationwide,” she wrote on social media. “We will rapidly acquire and deploy body cameras to DHS law enforcement across the country.”
Noem did not specifically say agents would be required to wear the cameras.
