NewzA group of U.S. senators, led by Nevada Democrat Catherine Cortez Masto, has formally requested that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) abandon a proposal to equip officers with electric shock gloves. The devices are designed to deliver painful electrical discharges to individuals, a capability that has prompted the legislative push to halt the procurement process.
The senators' intervention highlights ongoing scrutiny regarding the equipment and tactics utilized by federal immigration enforcement agencies. By calling for the cancellation of the plan, the group aims to prevent the integration of these specific restraint tools into the agency's standard operational toolkit.
