Trump Border Czar Tom Homan Faces Protests Over Immigration Policies at NY Capitol

Homan criticized New York's sanctuary policies and vowed to escalate ICE enforcement during a tense visit to Albany.

Tom Homan, President Trump's border czar, visited the New York State Capitol to advocate for stricter immigration enforcement and cooperation with ICE.
Homan criticized New York's sanctuary policies, including the Green Light Law, which allows undocumented immigrants to obtain driver's licenses.
During his visit, Homan faced intense protests from activists and Democratic lawmakers, with chants and confrontations over federal immigration policies.
Homan warned that non-cooperation with ICE would lead to increased federal enforcement, stating, 'Sanctuary cities will get exactly what they don’t want: more ICE agents in their communities.'
New York State Assembly Member Zohran Mamdani confronted Homan over the detention of Columbia University student Mahmoud Khalil, a case that has drawn significant public attention.
