PA: Pittsburgh mayor declares he will not cooperate with ICE gang on raids

Source: Fox News

“Pittsburgh Mayor Ed Gainey emphasized Monday that his administration would not be working with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to arrest illegal [sic] immigrants. Speaking to the Pennsylvania Press Club Monday, Gainey said, ‘I am not going to be working with ICE. My administration will not work with ICE. We will do whatever is necessary to make our city more welcoming.’ When asked, Gainey attacked ICE, claiming that it would not solve the ongoing immigration crisis. ‘ICE is not going to end the situation of a failed immigration policy. It’s not going to do it,’ Gainey said. ‘What it is going to do is create more situations where people feel scared. Where people don’t feel safe. Where people do things they normally wouldn’t do.’ Instead, he encouraged pathways to citizenship for illegal [sic] immigrants.” (01/28/25)
