DOJ sues states that rejected ICE requests for undercover license plates
DOJ keeps accusing ICE monitoring sites of doxing, but evidence remains scarce.
The Trump administration continues to claim in lawsuits that ICE monitoring sites are doxing agents, without showing evidence that's happening.
Most recently, the Department of Justice pointed to sites like ICEList.info and ICESpy.org in lawsuits it filed in an attempt to force four states to reverse policies blocking ICE agents from registering undercover license plates.
The DOJ alleged that the states' policies are unconstitutional, unlawfully requiring federal officers to abide by different rules than state officers who can easily obtain undercover plates. Among risks to ICE agents denied undercover plates, the DOJ counted alleged threats of increased harassment and invasive tracking of officers, as well as the possibility that targets of ICE enforcement may more easily evade arrest.
