9th Circuit Halts California Rule Requiring Federal Agents to Wear IDs

TL;DR Summary
A three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals blocked California's 2025 law that would require federal immigration agents to wear badges or identification, granting an injunction pending appeal and ruling the measure would directly regulate the federal government in violation of the Constitution's Supremacy Clause; the decision follows a DOJ lawsuit and prior temporary injunctions.
