📰 News we're reading
• Commissioners Reaffirm Cooperation With ICE (capemaycountyherald.com) — Cape May County commissioners recently reaffirmed their cooperation with federal immigration authorities after several residents, including Villas’ Deborah Pangell, urged support for New Jersey’s Immigrant Trust Act. Speakers from across the county argued that limiting local involvement in ICE actions would protect law-abiding immigrant families and encourage crime reporting, while officials kept the requested resolution off the agenda.
