Nassau Plans ICE Pact Exit, Backs Sheriff-Led Lawsuit Against Hochul
Nassau County will unwind its ICE 287(g) agreement and join a federal lawsuit led by multiple county sheriffs challenging Gov. Hochul’s anti-ICE measures, while Blakeman says the county will comply with the law but still seeks to preserve some ICE cooperation; Hochul has urged compliance and threatened action against holdouts, and the sheriffs’ suit is led by Rensselaer County’s officials.
