This bill, the ‘Fight Unlawful Conduct and Keep Individuals and Communities Empowered Act,’ allows individuals to sue people who violate the U.S. Constitution while conducting civil immigration enforcement. It establishes a legal pathway for seeking monetary damages, including punitive damages, attorney’s fees, and equitable relief, if a person is found to have engaged in unconstitutional conduct. The bill also outlines specific factors considered when determining punitive damages, such as the use of facial coverings, failure to disclose identity, and non-use of body-worn cameras by law enforcement.
