Mamdani threatens ICE with legal action over use of New York parking lots

Letter from mayor tells federal agents to stay out of city-owned facilities for immigration operations

Mayor Zohran Mamdani has threatened to take legal action against Immigration and Customs Enforcement over allegations the agency's officers at the agency are using parking lots owned by New York City for operations in the area.

In a letter to the Trump administration, Mamdani noted the agency's use of property owned by the city was unauthorized and is therefore illegal, endangers City residents, and sows fear among those who seek to access City property".
