Part 3/4:
A significant part of the rally’s message focused on the need to remove Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers from New York City. Williams and other speakers called on residents and policymakers to work together to push ICE out of the city, emphasizing that true safety comes from community solidarity rather than federal immigration enforcement.
The speakers urged New Yorkers to believe in a collective effort to protect vulnerable populations and maintain the city’s reputation as a sanctuary city. Their message resonated with a desire to foster an environment where everyone, regardless of immigration status, can feel safe and valued.
