“That’s one thing that I’m committed to, is full transparency, and I fully welcome body cameras,” ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons said.

Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-Texas) argued the move is needed to boost public trust.

“Everyone assumes this body camera footage is bad footage,” he said. “In so many cases, it’s the exact opposite.”
