Zohran Mamdani Tells Immigrant New Yorkers About Their Right Not to Comply with ICE

Mamdani urged immigrant New Yorkers to know their legal rights against ICE enforcement and pledged protection for the city’s 3 million immigrants amid recent federal raids.

  • On Sunday, Zohran Mamdani, New York City mayor-elect, posted a social media video explaining immigrants' right to refuse to speak to or comply with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement after a Manhattan raid.
  • A week earlier, demonstrators gathered as ICE attempted detainment on Canal Street near New York's Chinatown, and a similar sweep in the neighborhood last October also prompted protests.
  • Under his guidance, ICE needs a judicial warrant to enter homes, schools and private workplace areas, Mamdani said, adding ICE may lie but immigrants should remain silent and ask `Am I free to go?` if detained.
  • Zohran Mamdani pledged to protect the city's 3 million immigrants and said New York will always welcome and support them as he prepares for his Jan 1 swearing-in.
  • Against a backdrop of federal sweeps, Mamdani's meeting with President Donald Trump came as the Trump administration conducted immigration raids in Manhattan and New Orleans.
