This Tuesday marked a national Day of Action on immigration, sponsored by the U.S. Conference of Mayors. New York mayor Bill de Blasio marked the occasion by announcing a major new policy: starting immediately, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents will no longer be allowed to enter any of New York City’s 1,600 public schools for any purpose, unless they have a properly executed warrant signed by a judge. “There have been such deep fears and concerns these recent weeks,” counseled de Blasio. But, he promised, “ICE agents will not be wandering the halls of a school.”
