Philly City Council Considers "ICE Out" Legislation, as DA Krasner Decries "Wannabe Nazi" ICE Agents
At least 15 Philadelphia city councilmembers have backed a package of "ICE Out" legislation aimed at combating ICE and federal immigration enforcement operations in Philadelphia, including codifying sanctuary protections and prohibiting federal immigration agents from concealing their identities or covering their faces. "We heard the cries from the community calling for something to be done," says Kendra Brooks, a member of the Philadelphia City Council, where she serves as minority leader. "Our goal was to make sure that something is in place to prevent any undue harm." Councilmembers will vote on the legislation in the coming weeks, and it is expected to pass with a veto-proof majority.
