Nassau County officials have announced they will end all agreements with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) following the passage of a new state law prohibiting local cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. The move comes as part of broader legal changes aimed at limiting police involvement in immigration status checks. The decision reflects growing tensions between state and federal authorities over immigration policy, with local governments increasingly restricting how they interact with federal agencies. Residents and advocacy groups have long pushed for such measures to protect immigrant communities from deportation risks tied to local law enforcement.
