Immigration activists charged after being accused of blocking entrances at State Capitol They were there to call for action on immigration-related legislation, including bills that would keep local law enforcement from cooperating with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

“We’ve seen countless NYers separated from their families, ripped from their communities, because of local collusion with immigration enforcement. It's important that this bill get acted on immediately to provide the justice NYers deserve.”

New York Stands Still for Alex Pretti A report from a Jan. 29 vigil in Manhattan for slain nurse Alex Pretti and other victims of Donald Trump's immigration crackdown.

Even in the frigid cold, NYers came out to honor Alex Pretti, a nurse, an advocate, and a good neighbor.
@heyitsmurad.bsky.social reminded us that his murder is part of a pattern of deaths in ICE custody and extrajudicial killings that must be put to an end.

Commentary: On protecting immigrants, will New York choose complicity or courage? Three major pieces of legislation — the New York for All Act, the Access to Representation Act and the BUILD Act — will help the state defend its immigrant residents.

Passing the Access to Representation Act would protect all immigrant New Yorkers by providing universal legal representation.

Protecting immigrant families isn't a partisan issue, it's a human issue. ❤️ 🗽

The New York for All Act must be passed to protect our immigrant neighbors.

NY's elected officials should either stand with the vulnerable or stand aside! 🗽✊
