LOS ANGELES - A newly introduced bill in the California Legislature aims to block former federal immigration agents from transitioning into local public service roles.

The bill would permanently disqualify anyone who worked for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) between Sept. 1, 2025, and Jan. 20, 2029, from holding jobs in California law enforcement or public education.

    I had the same thought. I was thinking, maybe it would have a stronger chance if only ICE experience was considered like an employment gap for all Cali based employers. So, people can’t opportunistically get their foot into the door of a larger career via ICEs cheap recruitment/ vetting tactics.
