New York Democrats have proposed legislation targeting parking lot owners, urging them to prohibit Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents from accessing their properties. The move follows concerns over ICE operations in public spaces, with lawmakers arguing that private businesses should not facilitate enforcement activities. Supporters claim the measure aims to protect tenants and communities from potential harassment or detention risks. Critics, however, argue it could create legal and practical challenges for property owners and law enforcement cooperation.
