Over the past months, we\u2019ve witnessed the Trump administration repeatedly disregard the U.S. Constitution, disappearing residents within our country without due process and wrongfully arresting local government officials. New Yorkers are counting on our city to protect their civil rights, and yet, Mayor Adams has attempted to betray this obligation by handing power over our city to Trump\u2019s ICE because he <a>is compromised<\/a>. This <a>attempted corrupt deal <\/a>to allow ICE to set up a center on Rikers would only make our city, and all New Yorkers, less safe. The Council will continue to use our power and resources to protect New Yorkers from the Trump administration\u2019s harmful agenda, and we look forward to the court\u2019s decision on the preliminary injunction.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">###<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><em>Today, New York State Supreme Court Judge Mary Rosado preserved a temporary restraining order (TRO) after hearing arguments for a preliminary injunction to further halt Mayor Eric Adams\u2019 administration from implementing Executive Order 50 that would facilitate Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to establish a center on Rikers Island.
