NEW: 100+ faith leaders & faith-based orgs call on @govkathyhochul, @AndreaSCousins, & Carl Heastie to pass #NY4All!
“As ppl of faith, we believe in sanctuary. This is not abstract theology—it is a living mandate. And right now, it demands that we act.” https://t.co/Y0YOQxmJzi
Federal judges in deep-red Trump country 🦅 are sounding the alarm that ICE enforcement is spiraling out of control into full-scale authoritarianism. We need to pass #NY4ALL to limit federal overreach when it comes to immigration enforcement in NYS. 🗽❤️

💔 We are heartbroken by the loss of our compañero Mahoma López Garfias last week. Mahoma was a driving force in our Alliance and a longtime leader of @LWC_workers, where he helped workers organize across NYC & New Jersey. ¡Mahoma, Presente!

We unequivocally condemn the murder of Alex Pretti by ICE, along with the ongoing militarization of Minneapolis that led to his murder.
Defending immigrants is not a crime. When that right is violated, especially by federal law enforcement, we demand justice.
🚨 STATEMENT: NYIC Applauds Hochul’s Commitment to End State Collusion With ICE
"With the majority of NYers rejecting ICE’s abusive tactics and Trump’s deportation agenda, the State must take decisive action to enact New York for All now. " @heyitsmurad
