Law enforcement Masks

Washington doesn’t need a mask mandate for law enforcement officers or ICE agents. Instead, officers and agents should be required to wear large identification numbers in plain sight.

The state shouldn’t create one standard for law enforcement and another for demonstrators. If the state requires masks to be removed by law enforcement, the same logic should apply to demonstrators and protesters.

Posting photos, names, and home addresses of law enforcement officers with the intent to intimidate or endanger them should be treated as a serious crime. RCW 4.24.792 should be strictly enforced, and the law should be strengthened where necessary.

Special warrants should be required when detaining suspects.
