Biddeford’s Limits on ICE Power | Portland Maine News
from Portland Maine News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Biddeford’s city solicitor warned the council that the city has virtually no power to stop ICE from enforcing federal immigration laws—but hinted at a possible workaround: using zoning rules to limit where ICE facilities can operate. He clarified that local police aren’t cooperating with recent ICE actions and drew a line between administrative warrants and court-issued ones. As residents grow concerned about ICE showing up at polling places, the city is exploring limited local tools to manage federal presence without overstepping legal boundaries. No action was taken Tuesday night—just a sobering look at what Biddeford can—and can’t—do. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
