These are not actions that serve any interest of public safety.

Our laws and our values are not bargaining chips.

"There is no reason why ICE agents need to have a mask on. Other federal agents do not."

Me enorgullece promulgar estas sólidas y sensatas medidas de protección para los neoyorquinos.

"People have rights that we are not forgoing just because there's been this decision by the Trump administration to unleash hell on our streets."

We’re proud of that for a number of reasons. One, it is a policy designed to keep New Yorkers safe.

I have made clear, as you’ve said, that I view ICE actions to be cruel and inhumane.

We will not be threatened to leave so many of the New Yorkers, who call this city home, prey to these kinds of cruel policies.

"We will not be allowing civil immigration to occur with ICE agents in sensitive locations unless you have a court order or warrant for arrest."

But Donald Trump said when he ran for office, 'I'm going to go after the worst of the worst, the baddest of the bad,' and people believed him.

Today, I met with New Yorkers who have been impacted by ICE’s cruel and dangerous actions. This overreach is unacceptable and will never be tolerated in this state.

When you think about the stress that New Yorkers are under with the high cost of everything, and Donald Trump promised lower prices day one, and we're still waiting for that.

We're also saying there is no reason why ICE agents need to have a mask on. Other federal agents do not.

Next, we are also making sure that people have a constitutional right to go to court if the federal government ICE agents have violated their rights.

This is about protecting people who came, just like my grandparents came here in search of a better life and started with nothing, they were dirt poor.

I need to deliver immediate relief to New Yorkers, and one of the areas where there's a lot of anxiety is around paying utility bills.

Just as you hear from me on what we're intending to do in a few moments is to say that we will not be allowing civil immigration to occur with ICE agents in sensitive locations unless you have a court order or warrant for arrest.

Let me be clear that this movement did not start in government.
