ICE

Newsweek -    The Philadelphia City Council on Thursday approved a package of bills aimed at further limiting cooperation between city agencies and federal immigration authorities, sending the measures to Mayor Cherelle Parker for consideration.  The "ICE Out" legislation passed with a veto-proof majority after advancing through committee earlier this month.

The legislation would restrict cooperation between city agencies and federal immigration authorities, including banning 287(g) agreements and limiting information sharing with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). It would also require visible identification for officers, prohibit discrimination based on immigration status and restrict ICE access to city property without a judicial warrant.
