NEW: Today Gov. Hochul announced a measure intended to limit local law enforcement from aiding ICE's deportation agenda. But a bill that would fully end collusion w/ ICE—and do more to protect immigrant NYers—already exists: the New York for All Act. It's time for state leadership to pass it, now.

Press release from the New York for All coalition in response to Governor Hochul's proposed bill addressing protections for immigrants, and calling for the passage of the New York for All Act.

About Red States on #NoKings: Red State Dems often feel invisible. Unseen. But we are here. We’re doing the work. Often in hostile places. In the places nobody else dares to go. Despite gerrymanders, voter suppression, and without support. But we keep showing up. Don’t count us out. Count us in.

Definitely good advice. There's a full-day seminar here but here's 2 other points: > Be positive: Don't tell me what you're against - tell me what you're for. > Answer the question, "What's in it for me?" Make abstract ideas (being pro-democracy) into personal benefits (your freedom).

Important point for all candidates. Stay on message, make the message simple and you'll be miles ahead of other candidates.

Zohran Mamdani is a trained performer who has an extremely disciplined and laser-focused ability to recite on-message talking points in response to any question, and yet voters overwhelming praise him as being especially "authentic" compared to other politicians. There's a lesson here!

🚨ICE has arrested at least 4,600 people in NY in the first 7 months of this year, more than the total number arrested by the agency in 2024. "The policy of this administration is to detain literally everyone,” said NYCLU supervising attorney Amy Belsher.

Here’s where ICE is arresting immigrants in New York

Immigration arrests in Buffalo, Rochester, Albany and Saratoga have dominated upstate New York. In New York City, arrests skyrocketed at Federal Plaza.

The Trump administration is offering cash to local law enforcement in exchange for "locating" our immigrant neighbors through the 287(g) program. Taxpayer dollars are better spent investing in programs that actually keep our communities safe — not fueling mass deportations.

The Trump administration has expanded the controversial program to harm more communities than ever. Families and advocates nationwide are fighting back.

Our Town. Rural America. Not L.A. not Chicago. Oswego. Not violent criminals getting guns pointed at them. No, they’re our neighbors, our friends. Just for caring about their fellow man. it can’t happen here, and here it is, happening.

Good. The AG is right to sue the Trump admin over its attacks on gender-affirming care for young people. Next, Governor Hochul should sign S.4914-B, which will improve the state's existing "shield law" to ensure that people can access and provide gender-affirming care knowing NY has their backs.

New York is joining over a dozen other states in suing the Trump administration over directives targeting gender-affirming care for minors.

NEW: Noncitizens across the country are arriving at immigration courts expecting to present their case and return home to their families — instead, ICE is arresting them as they leave the courthouse. We're suing ICE over this unlawful and cruel policy.
