2月9日(路透社)- 洛杉矶一名联邦法官周一初步裁定,驳回一项禁止联邦官员在执勤时佩戴口罩的加州州法律。
美国地方法院法官克里斯蒂娜·斯奈德表示,美国政府很可能证明该法律违宪,并批准了其要求颁布禁止执行该法律的命令。

在同一裁决中,斯奈德支持了另一项加州法律,该法律要求联邦官员在执行职责时必须出示身份证明。
加州州长加文·纽森在一份声明中表示,斯奈德关于身份证明法的裁决是”法治的明确胜利”,并指出”没有徽章和姓名就意味着没有问责”。
美国司法部长帕姆·邦迪在X平台的一份声明中称,关于口罩法的裁决是”又一项关键的法院胜利”。
“这些联邦特工仅仅因为履行职责就经常受到骚扰、被公开个人信息、阻挠和袭击,”邦迪说,”我们对此零容忍。”
纽森于9月签署了这些条款,当时正值共和党总统唐纳德·特朗普向洛杉矶部署国民警卫队,以应对移民执法行动抗议。美国司法部于11月起诉要求废除这些法律,并表示不会遵守。
该部门在诉讼中称,联邦官员”面临州官员的刑事追责现实威胁,这些州官员已明确表示有意针对联邦官员并破坏联邦执法活动,包括联邦移民执法。”
斯奈德是民主党美国总统比尔·克林顿任命的法官,她同意特朗普政府的观点,即加州的口罩法违反了美国宪法的”最高条款”,该条款禁止各州干涉联邦职能。法官表示,该法律不当针对联邦官员,对他们的对待与州执法人员不同——后者被排除在口罩禁令之外。

US judge rejects California law that banned masks for federal officers
February 10, 2026 2:47 AM UTC / Reuters
Feb 9 (Reuters) – A federal judge in Los Angeles on Monday preliminarily struck down a California state law that bans federal officers from wearing masks while on duty.
U.S. District Judge Christina Snyder said, opens new tab the U.S. government was likely to prove that the law is unconstitutional and granted its request for an order against its enforcement.

In the same ruling, Snyder upheld another California law that requires federal officers to display identification when performing their duties.

California Governor Gavin Newsom said in a statement that Snyder’s decision on the identification law was “a clear win for the rule of law,” and that “no badge and no name mean no accountability.”
U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi called the decision on the mask law “ANOTHER key court victory” in a statement on X.
“These federal agents are harassed, doxxed, obstructed, and attacked on a regular basis just for doing their jobs,” Bondi said. “We have no tolerance for it.”
Newsom signed the provisions in September amid Republican President Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops to Los Angeles during protests over immigration enforcement operations. The U.S. Department of Justice sued to strike down the laws in November and said it would not comply.
The department said in the lawsuit that federal officers “face a real threat of criminal liability from state officials who have made clear their intent to target federal officers and disrupt federal law enforcement activities, including federal immigration enforcement.”
Snyder, an appointee of Democratic U.S. President Bill Clinton, agreed with the Trump administration that California’s masking law violated the U.S. Constitution’s Supremacy Clause, which prevents states from interfering with federal functions. The judge said the law improperly targets federal officers by treating them differently than state law enforcement officers, who were excluded from the mask ban.
