A federal judge has ordered New York City's mayor to turn over information to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) regarding homeless shelter residents. Court documents reveal that the order compels the mayor to comply with an administrative subpoena issued by ICE targeting a city-run homeless shelter. Rather than treating municipal shelters as protected spaces of last resort for people experiencing extreme poverty and displacement, federal authorities are transforming the city's safety net into an intelligence database for deportation sweeps.
