Federal court SLAPS down New York and hands victory to Trump and ICE
AUGUST 03, 2026
The judge said the New York law would likely violate the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution.
A federal court issued a preliminary ruling that blocked New York officials from banning federal immigration agents from wearing masks and other coverings.
Democratic New York Gov. Kathy Hochul signed the Face Covering and Identification Acts in May in order to rein in ICE operations in the state.
'We stand firm in our belief that masked agents do not make New York safer, and our offices are reviewing all legal options at this time.'
The Department of Justice sued against the order and argued that it violated the "sovereign function" of the United States.
Linda Fang of the New York State Attorney General's office argued that the law did not contradict any law issued by the federal government.
