Common Council Supports Immigrant Rights Resolution

April 4, 2007 - 11:00pm
By Vanessa Hoffman

Article body:

In a show of support for immigrants’ rights, the Ithaca Common Council unanimously passed the Statement on Immigration Enforcement last night in City Hall.

The resolution encourages the Ithaca Police Department to not enforce immigration laws and states that the IPD is “requested to treat the enforcement of federal immigration laws as a function of federal law enforcement agencies.” However, the statement allows for Ithaca police officers to enforce these laws if there is suspicion of criminal activity.
