City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito vowed Thursday to block federal agents from city property where New Yorkers get social services, saying the city would act as a “watchdog” against President Trump’s immigration policies.

The properties include hospitals, court houses, homeless shelters and job centers.

Mark-Viverito also said the Council would create a “comprehensive system” to limit the city’s gathering of personal data Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials might use to deport people.

“The Council will pass legislation blocking ICE from private areas on city property and offices where New Yorkers receive social services, unless they have a judicial warrant or court order,” she said during a 58-minute State of the City speech at the Kings Theater.

“We will not allow officers of the Department of Probation, the NYPD, and the Department of Correction to act as ICE agents and enforce immigration law,” she added. “They have better things to do.”

Let's see how many lackeys are willing to catch a fed obstruction charge?

Aiding and abetting illegal foreign nationals is a federal felony and local government officials are not immune to prosecution.

In before someone says the local sheriff can "order federal agents out of his county"

The only things .gov bigwigs in NYC care about is money and poweer. Cut off the federal funding and the same people talking trash now would offer to execute illegals out in the parking lot.

Time to start federally charging some people. Also lets pull all their federal funding, and watch the place burn.

The .gov  is going to be saving so much damn money when it cuts the federal funding of CA, NYC, and all sanctuary cities/states.

I'd like to be a fly on the wall when she's dragged out for violating a federal order.
It would be a good laugh-

Liberals, the people you grow to dislike as soon as you talk to one.

Charging with what? Until President Trump rescinds pre-Obama and Obama era ICE/HQ  policies, most of these locations are off limits anyway. Like schools, hospitals, funerals, workplaces, and others require special HQ permission to conduct surveillance on. Also, no US Attorney ever has nor will accept prosecution for 8USC1323 against state officials. Just like the courts will not hold state officials accountable for refusing to accept/honor an immigration detainer placed on an alien in jail/prison.

Doesn't  work that way. Fed can block locals from areas but locals cant block Feds. Its called the supremacy clause.
