NYS Governor Kathy Hochul (D) Takes on ICE

Saturday, May 30, 2026

The Empire State's first female governor, Kathy Hochul (D), signed into law a set of sweeping protections for immigrant New Yorkers, including a ban on law enforcement officers wearing masks and a measure barring local police statewide from enforcing civil immigration laws. One law also bars ICE agents from entering so-called "sensitive locations," such as churches, schools, and polling places; another law allows individuals to sue ICE for alleged constitutional violations.

NYS Governor Kathy Hochul (D) has shown the way forward for the next non-Republican POTUS on 20 Jan 2029:

"By Executive Order, no ICE or DHS agents will wear masks or be armed with firearms. Fully-accredited and lightly-armed Deputy US Marshals (DUSMs) will accompany unarmed ICE and DHS agents when apprehending aliens or migrants. All migrants and aliens will not be immediately deported and will be taken before Immigration Judges (IJ) for due process. These aliens and migrants will not be incarcerated unless they have been clearly proven to be a danger to the community."
