Feds sue Milwaukee over ordinance against law enforcement masking

The U.S. government filed a lawsuit against Milwaukee challenging its ordinance prohibiting law enforcement from wearing masks while interacting with the public. The lawsuit argues that states cannot regulate federal law enforcement actions, citing constitutional principles. Milwaukee's ordinance requires officers to be facially identifiable with their names and agency on uniform, while the city attorney disputes federal claims of immunity under the Supremacy Clause.
