To prohibit the Federal Government from using facial recognition technology as a means of identity verification, and for other purposes.

H.R. 3782 would prohibit any federal government agency from using facial recognition technology as a method to verify a person’s identity. In other words, federal agencies could not rely on facial recognition to confirm who someone is for programs, benefits, access to facilities, or any other identity-verification purpose. The bill also provides a definition of facial recognition technology as a contemporary security system that automatically identifies and verifies an individual’s identity from a digital image or video frame. The text provided shows the bill as introduced (June 5, 2025) and does not include any exceptions, enforcement mechanisms, or additional provisions.
