We also need to pass @shahanafrombk.bsky.social's New York City Trust Act, which would allow individuals to sue if city agencies violate their rights as immigrants.

Among other things, this rally will push NY legislators to pass the NY for All Act to prevent state & local agencies (including the police) from cooperating with ICE. For more on that, visit www.nyic.org/our-work/cam...

Graphic reading "Neoyorquinos Opuestos a ICE / 6 pm * 9/25 * Foley Square" "Traigan sus ollas y cucharas." Image shows a pen and ink drawing of a group of protestors holding signs that read NEW YORK FOR ALL! NO TROOPS IN OUR CITIES! and ICE OUT OF NY.
