Overview
- At an interfaith breakfast, the mayor signed an executive order restricting ICE entry to city property without a judicial warrant, covering schools, shelters and hospitals.
- The directive orders agency policy reviews for compliance, creates a task force on ICE and immigration, and sets new privacy safeguards to limit federal access to personal data.
- It requires a public safety audit for key agencies and establishes an interagency committee for crisis coordination related to immigration enforcement.
- Immigrant-rights leaders praised the action, while some reporting cast it as largely restating existing protections, with the full text not immediately released.
- In his remarks, Mamdani condemned ICE as a "rogue agency" and framed support for migrants through his faith, saying the city will stand with "the stranger."
