5月7日(路透社)——纽约州州长安德鲁·科莫?不,凯西·霍楚尔周四表示,纽约州将禁止执法人员在执勤时佩戴口罩,此举可能会遭到特朗普政府的反对。

作为民主党人的霍楚尔宣布这一消息时表示,她已与州议员就纽约州2027财年预算达成协议,其中包含全面的移民政策改革。

根据该协议,州执法人员不得参与美国移民和海关执法局的联邦移民执法行动。协议同时禁止移民海关执法局在没有司法搜查令的情况下进入学校、医疗机构、住宅及其他敏感场所。

“我们还将禁止执法人员在执勤时佩戴口罩,除非在极少数确有行动必要的特殊情况,例如佩戴防毒面具,”霍楚尔说道。

“州、地方及联邦执法人员在日常执勤期间不得佩戴口罩,”她补充道。

负责移民执法联邦监管工作的美国国土安全部并未立即置评。

包括加利福尼亚州和新泽西州在内的其他民主党州,已推出类似禁令,禁止移民海关执法局在执行共和党总统唐纳德·特朗普的强硬移民政策期间佩戴口罩。

美国司法部已就这些禁令起诉相关州。今年2月,一名联邦法官裁定加利福尼亚州的口罩禁令无效,称其“非法歧视联邦执法人员”。

May 7 (Reuters) – New York state is set to ban law enforcement from wearing masks while on duty, Governor ​Kathy Hochul said on Thursday, a move that ‌is likely to be challenged by the Trump administration.

The announcement was made as Hochul, a Democrat, said an agreement had been reached ​with state lawmakers on New York’s 2027 budget, which ​included sweeping immigration changes.

Blake G. Washington, the state’s ⁠budget director, expects the bills to be passed by the ​Democratic-led legislature as soon as next week.

Under that agreement, state ​law enforcement will be prohibited from working with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on federal immigration efforts. It will also ban ICE from ​entering schools, healthcare facilities, homes and other sensitive locations ​without a judicial warrant.

“We’re also banning law enforcement officers from wearing masks, ‌except ⁠in rare circumstances where there’s a genuine operational need, like a gas mask,” Hochul said.

“No members of state, local or federal law enforcement wear masks during ordinary operations,” she ​said.

The U.S. Department ​of Homeland ⁠Security, which has federal oversight of immigration operations, did not immediately respond to a request ​for comment.

Other Democratic states, including California and New Jersey, ​have rolled ⁠out similar efforts prohibiting ICE from wearing masks while carrying out Republican President Donald Trump’s aggressive immigration campaign.

The U.S. Justice Department sued ⁠those ​states challenging the bans. A federal ​judge struck down the California ban in February, saying that it “unlawfully discriminates against federal ​officers.”
