NY-Albany council passes immigrant resolution
Albany council passes immigrant resolution
Urges police to not inquire about residency status
July 20, 2009 - 11:41 PM
When Russian immigrant Anton Konev spoke in support of a resolution designed to help immigrants in Albany, he touched on one reason it was proposed in the first place.
"The community in Albany is changing," Konev told the city's Common Council. It's estimated the city has 7,000 immigrants who call it home.
The resolution calls on all state, federal and local political leaders and agencies to "refrain from all unnecessary measures to jail, detain, or deport documented and undocumented immigrants and their families living in the City of Albany....when an immigrant living, visiting and/or working in...Albany...is not posing a threat..."
Councilwoman Barbara Smith says the suggestion came from Fred Boehrer of the New Sanctuary Movement, someone whose work often brings assistance to immigrants. "I think this tells immigrants they are valued and their human rights are intact," Boehrer said.
Smith acknowledged the resolution neither requires nor prevents any sort of behavior on the part of police officers and says it is not a barrier to police officers doing their jobs.

Let the legislators that support illegals pay for them
Gov. Patterson has no right to cry poor mouth and tell the citizens of NY that they have to pick up the slack when they are giving illegals freebies.

What gives the city government--
What gives the city government--the right to give sanctuary to lawbreakers?? I am angry. Is it because the apple and dairy farmers want the cheap labor??? Why does that make the city of Albany a sanctuary city? The officials are traitors and lawbreakers.
