Phoenix City Leaders Propose New Policy to Limit ICE Operations
Phoenix city leaders have drafted a new policy, the Community Transparency Initiative, to restrict how federal immigration agents can operate on city property. The main rule would require ICE to obtain written permission from the city manager for using Phoenix buildings or land for operations. This proposal comes after a contentious city council vote in February, which sparked strong feelings among residents who want more say in these matters. The draft also includes provisions for better tracking of ICE actions and training for city workers. The Department of Homeland Security has not yet commented on the proposal, and the council plans to vote on it at their next meeting. The outcome of this vote could significantly impact cooperation between local and federal law enforcement in Phoenix.
