纽约市长联同逾百民选官员致信停车场业主 吁拒为ICE提供集结场地

位于纽约州的纽约市,纽约市长佐赫兰·马姆达尼10月16日联同参议院民主党领袖查克·舒默、众议院民主党领袖哈基姆·杰弗里斯及100多名民选官员发表公开信,呼吁全市五区的私人停车场与车库业主,不要让美国移民与海关执法局(ICE)使用其物业作为执法行动的集结场地。
这封信属自愿性质,不改变任何法律。此前,10月8日马布尔山社区发生移民执法人员枪击28岁男子奥斯卡·贝尔加尔的事件,当时其5岁儿子也在车内。议员们称,ICE曾使用皇后区北大道两处银行停车场及曼哈顿莫顿街一处车库集结。
市长办公室表示,现行市法已限制市有物业用于联邦民事移民执法,但不涵盖私人物业。有意沟通的业主可联系市移民事务专员法伊扎·阿里。马姆达尼表示,市府将继续维护本地法律,保护纽约市民。
New York Mayor and More Than 100 Officials Urge Parking Lot Owners to Bar ICE Staging
New York City is located in New York State. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, joined by Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer, House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries and more than 100 other elected officials, released a letter on October 16 asking owners of private parking lots and garages across the five boroughs not to let U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement use their properties as staging areas for enforcement operations.
The appeal is voluntary and does not change any law. It follows the October 8 shooting of 28-year-old Oscar Belgal by an immigration officer in the Marble Hill neighborhood, while Belgal's 5-year-old son was in the car. Lawmakers said ICE had used two bank parking lots on Northern Boulevard in Queens and a garage on Morton Street in Manhattan as staging areas.
City law already restricts the use of city-owned property for federal civil immigration enforcement, but those restrictions do not cover private property. Owners interested in discussing the request can contact Faiza Ali, the city's Commissioner of Immigrant Affairs. Mamdani said the city would continue to uphold its local laws and protect New Yorkers.
