New York Governor Kathy Hochul and Attorney General Letitia James today sued the Trump administration to protect a new package of state laws establishing critical accountability measures concerning immigration and law enforcement operations in New York. 

“By hiding their faces and refusing to wear identification, federal immigration officers endanger New Yorkers and intentionally evade accountability. Our communities should not have to live in fear of being disappeared by unidentified masked agents. If the federal government wants to brazenly defy our laws, then we will fight tooth and nail in court to ensure transparency and keep all New Yorkers safe.” – AG James
