New York’s new “Local Cops, Local Crimes Act” is forcing 12 law enforcement agencies—including Steuben County—to end their ICE partnerships, sparking legal and political firestorms. Sheriff James Allard defends the collaboration, saying it boosts safety by ensuring body cams and reducing covert ICE operations. But Attorney General Letitia James says the deals violate state law banning local cops from aiding civil immigration enforcement. With the law already in effect, Allard claims it’s unconstitutional and is awaiting county guidance, while noting the ICE deals brought in $130K in revenue. The standoff could head to court, as New York grapples with federal immigration policy and public safety concerns.
