Manhattan Community Board 10 -- Immigration Equal Protection and Sanctuary City Resolution

In response to federal executive orders targeting immigrants and refugees, Manhattan Community Board 10 passed a resolution reaffirming Harlem's historic commitment to justice and inclusivity. Recognizing that 24% of Central Harlem is foreign-born, the Board called for immigrant protections grounded in constitutional rights, due process, and humanitarian values. It supports New York City's designation as a sanctuary city, urging the end of local law enforcement's cooperation with ICE and CBP, protection of sensitive data, and opposition to discriminatory registries.
