NYC PUBLIC ADVOCATE RESPONDS TO THE COURT TEMPORARILY BLOCKING THE MAYOR FROM BRINGING ICE TO RIKERS

 

"I’m grateful the court stepped in to uphold the law when Mayor Adams would not. This order will keep ICE off Rikers—at least for now—and prevent the mayor from implementing his deal with Donald Trump.

"The Mayor and President have repeatedly looked for ways to chip away at our sanctuary laws and make it more acceptable to escalate deportations of immigrant New Yorkers, regardless of criminality or illegality.

"Our communities deserve leadership that defends them, not ones that quietly aid Trump’s deportation machine. While this ruling is a win, we must remain vigilant."
