Trump border czar hints at ICE surge in N.Y. if lawmakers pass immigration bill

The debate over U.S. Immigration anc Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations continues in New York.

Trump administration border czar Tom Homan said this week more ICE agents could be sent to New York if legislation limiting how law enforcement can work with the agency is passed.

The “Local Cops, Local Crimes Act,” proposed by Gov. Kathy Hochul earlier this year, would ban state and local law enforcement from coordinating with federal immigration enforcement for non-criminal violations. It would also prohibit local governments, police and corrections from entering agreements to allow the federal government to use their resources for civil immigration enforcement.
