The PRICE Act increases criminal penalties for assaulting, resisting, or impeding Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers and employees. Currently, federal law punishes these offenses against federal officers, but this bill would double the maximum prison sentences and fines specifically when the victim is an ICE officer or employee. The legislation applies to anyone who physically harms, obstructs, or resists ICE personnel in the performance of their duties. There is no specified funding requirement or implementation timeline in the bill; it simply amends existing criminal law to create enhanced penalties for this specific category of federal workers.
