Excerpt: "As the #Trump administration claims federal agents have the authority to raid Americans’ homes and carry out arrests without a warrant, New York City Mayor #ZohranMamdani signed an executive order on Friday barring Immigration and Customs Enforcement and other agencies from entering properties without getting a warrant from a judge.

"It was part of a suite of policies Mamdani announced at an interfaith breakfast to reaffirm New York’s status as a #SanctuaryCity amid President Donald Trump’s surges of immigration agents to other US cities, which have resulted in extrajudicial killings and rampant civil rights violations by agents.

" 'Across this country, day after day, we bear witness to cruelty that staggers the conscience. Masked agents, paid by our own tax dollars, violate the #Constitution and visit terror upon our neighbors,' Mamdani said. 'That is why this morning, I am signing an executive order that will strengthen our city’s protection of our fellow New Yorkers from abusive immigration enforcement.' "
