Los agentes del Servicio de Inmigraci\u00f3n y Control de Aduanas (ICE) siguen cubri\u00e9ndose el rostro en operativos, seg\u00fan la postura que el Departamento de Seguridad Nacional (DHS) expuso en 2025. El 8 de octubre de 2026, el Departamento de Justicia demand\u00f3 a la ciudad de Denver, en Colorado, por una ordenanza que proh\u00edbe esas m\u00e1scaras a los agentes federales.<\/p>\n

Hasta la publicaci\u00f3n de esta nota no encontramos una orden federal nueva sobre el tema ni un comunicado de ICE fechado hoy. La postura oficial m\u00e1s reciente que consultamos sobre el uso de m\u00e1scaras es la de DHS de 2025.<\/p>\n

La demanda contra Denver<\/h2>\n

According to the comunicado del Departamento de Justicia<\/a>, la demanda va contra la ciudad y el condado de Denver, el alcalde Michael C. Johnston, la fiscal municipal Michiko Ando Brown y el jefe de polic\u00eda Ronald Thomas. La ordenanza, identificada como D.R.M.C. \u00a7\u00a7 28-300 a 28-303, proh\u00edbe a agentes federales usar m\u00e1scaras y les exige identificarse de la forma que ella establece.<\/p>\n

El procurador general asociado, Stanley E. Woodward Jr., afirm\u00f3 que “the Supremacy Clause makes clear that states and localities do not have the authority to regulate the Federal Government”. El fiscal general adjunto, Brett A. Shumate, dijo que “The Federal Government gets to decide which equipment federal officers may or may not wear”.<\/p>\n

El Departamento de Justicia sostiene adem\u00e1s que los agentes enfrentan m\u00e1s acoso, doxing y violencia, y que la ordenanza amenaza su seguridad. El comunicado no detalla cu\u00e1ndo entr\u00f3 en vigor la norma ni las sanciones que prev\u00e9.<\/p>\n

No es el primer caso<\/h2>\n

Denver se suma a una lista. El mismo comunicado menciona demandas anteriores del Departamento de Justicia contra Maryland, Nueva York, Virginia, Connecticut, Nueva Jersey, California, Filadelfia y Milwaukee por reglas parecidas.<\/p>\n

En septiembre de 2025, tras la firma de una ley californiana sobre el tema, DHS public\u00f3 su posici\u00f3n oficial<\/a>. All\u00ed afirma que los agentes “clearly identify themselves as law enforcement while wearing masks” y que usan chalecos marcados con “ICE\/ERO” o “Homeland Security”. La subsecretaria Tricia McLaughlin dijo entonces: “we will not abide by Newsom’s unconstitutional ban”.<\/p>\n

Qu\u00e9 argumenta DHS<\/h2>\n

DHS sostiene que las m\u00e1scaras protegen a los agentes de pandillas como el Tren de Aragua y la MS-13. Tambi\u00e9n asegura que las agresiones contra agentes de ICE aumentaron m\u00e1s de 1,000%. El comunicado no precisa con qu\u00e9 per\u00edodo ni con qu\u00e9 base se hace esa comparaci\u00f3n, as\u00ed que la cifra no se puede evaluar con lo publicado.<\/p>\n

Los cr\u00edticos de la pr\u00e1ctica, entre ellos autoridades locales que aprobaron prohibiciones, plantean que el rostro cubierto dificulta saber qui\u00e9n es un agente. Esa preocupaci\u00f3n explica por qu\u00e9 varias jurisdicciones legislaron, aunque el material oficial consultado recoge sobre todo la versi\u00f3n del gobierno federal.<\/p>\n

What's next?<\/h2>\n

La disputa se decide en los tribunales. Cada demanda del Departamento de Justicia plantea que una autoridad local o estatal no puede regular a agentes federales. DHS dijo en septiembre de 2025 que no acatar\u00e1 la prohibici\u00f3n de California; no encontramos una declaraci\u00f3n oficial suya sobre la ordenanza de Denver.<\/p>\n

\"Justicia<\/figure>\n

What does it mean to you?<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • El Departamento de Justicia sostiene que una ciudad no puede regular a agentes federales; la disputa sigue en los tribunales.<\/li>\n
  • Seg\u00fan DHS, sus agentes llevan chalecos marcados con “ICE\/ERO” o “Homeland Security”. Si te detienen, puedes pedir que se identifiquen y anotar lo que puedas: placa, veh\u00edculo, hora y lugar.<\/li>\n
  • Ante cualquier encuentro con ICE, tienes derecho a guardar silencio y a pedir hablar con un abogado. Consulta con una organizaci\u00f3n de ayuda legal de confianza para tu caso concreto.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
