Lawmakers in the House and Senate jointly introduced a bill today that would effectively ban the use of facial recognition technology by federal law enforcement agencies in the United States.

Sponsored by Senators Ed Markey and Jeff Merkley and Representatives Pramila Jayapal and Ayanna Pressley, the Facial Recognition and Biometric Technology Moratorium Act of 2020 was written to “prohibit biometric surveillance by the Federal Government without explicit statutory authorization and to withhold certain Federal public safety grants from State and local governments that engage in biometric surveillance.”
