Advocates call for passage of bills to protect immigrants in N.Y. as Trump retakes office
Advocates held a rally in Albany Wednesday calling on Gov. Kathy Hochul and state lawmakers to pass several bills to protect immigrants in the state as President-elect Donald Trump is set to return to the White House.
The four pieces of legislation include a bill that would prohibit state and local agencies from cooperating with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement as well as U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
