Immigration Activists Protest Rensselaer County Sheriff

No Kings Collective Albany and community leaders protested on Monday, Sept. 21st outside the Rensselaer County Sheriff’s police department (4000 Main St, Troy, NY) building to show opposition to the fact they continue working with ICE to arrest, detain, and deport countless local immigrants, despite a new state law that prohibits such activity. We hear from Autumn Anderson and John Cutro of No Kings; Jahaira Roldan of the NY Immigration Coalition; Dawedo Sanon of the Columbia County Sanctuary Movement; and, Alan Gaynor, a recent candidate for Rensselaer County Legislature (Dist. 5) By Mark Dunlea for Hudson Mohawk Magazine.
