() Despite ICE protests slowing down in volume and ferocity in recent weeks, tension still exists between some California residents and Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers.

Several instances have come to light of ICE agents taking individuals allegedly in the United States illegally into custody.

On Thursday, two gardeners were taken by federal immigration agents while working on a home in Southern California.

A viral video posted by local affiliate KTLA showed several men wearing Border Patrol vests detaining a man in Santa Ana on Saturday. His son told KTLA that his father was pepper-sprayed and punched repeatedly during detention.

On Sunday, a business owner in Torrance got into a heated verbal argument after ICE agents took some of his workers amid a raid at his car wash.

A law is now being proposed at the state level that, if passed, would require immigrant enforcement agents to identify themselves.

According to KTLA, California Sen. Sasha Renée Pérez, a Democrat from Pasadena, and Pasadena Mayor Victor M. Gordo are sponsoring legislation that would “reinforce the importance of law enforcement properly identifying themselves during enforcement actions.”

“Recent incidents involving individuals impersonating law enforcement officers have created confusion, fear and mistrust in communities across the state,” a release said, via KTLA.

“This legislation seeks to establish clear and consistent standards, requiring officers to identify themselves during enforcement actions.”
