✊Today, our members rallied at City Hall to support four @NYCCouncil bills that would protect NYC’s sanctuary city laws.

The NYPD’s collaboration with ICE agents last week during the Chinatown raid was blatant disregard for our sanctuary laws & New Yorkers won’t have it!

Int. 431-A already has 32 co-sponsors alongside a broad coalition of stakeholders who are pushing for this bill to pass before the end of session.

☎️ Call your councilmember & urge them to pass this VITAL bill to protect the street vendors that make our city vibrant!

🛒The new version of Int.431-A would balance street vending incentives with enforcement which, among other benefits for street vendors, allows issuing licenses to bring existing vendors into the regulatory system.

See why our member Sonia joined the rally today. ⬇️

The Protect Our Courts Act (POCA) helps people safely attend NY state & city courts without fearing an ICE arrest.

Although this is a victory for our communities, it's not applicable to federal courts. Immigrants attending their hearings at federal courts can still be subjected to ICE kidnappings.
