Landlords and employers in New York City who threaten to call federal agents on undocumented immigrants or say “go back to your country” could face fines of up to $250,000

Since 1989, the city’s human-rights law has banned discrimination based on citizenship status or “alienage” in employment, housing and public accommodations. On Wednesday, the commission released new guidelines specifying what threats violate the law.

That is horse shit!

Illegals should be politely escorted out of the country

The referenced Commission was established under the City’s Admin Code with specifically defined powers. I don’t believe fining law abiding citizens for reporting undocumented immigrants is an enumerated power & if it was I still believe Fed. law preempts.

Reporting a crime is now a crime. Dumbasses

Wait reporting crime is now itself a crime?!!!!

Are we in the EU?

Really!

Landlords and employers in New York City should get someone in New Jersey to do it for them. 😀

Mere words a crime? I’m sure SCOTUS will have something to say about that.

The legal are now illegal and the illegal are legal. Sounds about right in liberal utopia.

So crazy .........

Don't say a word call ice. See something say something.

Fucking ridiculous! DeepState FuckGeorgeSoros HillarysEmails Chemtrails MAGA2020

So much for their first amendment protections...

So... they can be fined for following the law?

If they say 'go back to your country' to an undocumented immigrant or to me, a Black American citizen? Are you inferring that it should not be a problem for landlords and employers to tell American POC to 'go back' somewhere

There is no freedom of speech in new York?

All this will do is make it harder for those people to find jobs and homes.

This is absurd!

Why signal out N.Y. city employees? There are many who share their sentiment. Fact is there are too many illegal aliens sponging off the system. These NYC employees should be receiving praise, not condemnation. RT

“Thanks, WSJOnion!” 🤔

Be a whistle blower. You will protected, or call them ICE anonymously.

Fined for obeying the law? NYC has gone cray cray. The first court case will show this idiotic policy reversed.

Totally in American ‼️stop the liberal agenda ‼️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Wtf

Well, that’s stupid.

This law is required in South Africa, it would help to reduce the high level of xenophobia there.

What? Free speech is being muscled by the law?

So much for free speech and property rights! 😥

Awesome. Any landlord who thinks it’s any of their damn business whether or not someone’s immigration papers are in order is an arrogant, nosy prick who needs to learn how to mind their own business and show their paying tenants some goddamn respect

This is like judging guilty even before proving innocence.

How will this be enforced? It won't.

Problem solved guys, wtf is wrong with libs

This is nuts.........

Anarcho-Tyranny FTW.

Ohh. Thats cruel..

Don't threaten. Just fucking do it.

Illegal immigrants.

No need to threaten. JUST CALL!

Are you also forbidden to say 'illegal' vs 'undocumented' ? Seems like the media still tip toes around that one.

You will comply or Democrats will punish you . They want full control over everything you say and do . Do Not forget this in 2020

That's behind the downfall of DNC & socialdemocrats in Europe: Taking the votes of their core electorates as granted-blue + white collar hard working Americans. Instead attracking world highskills a platform of the bottom of 3rd world countries. US partly a 3rd world society

This is the kind of shit that stops anyone with money from investing in NYC.

Don’t threaten just make the call

You don't like it, you can leave. Follow Musk to Mars

1st amendment people? Good lord.....

👍👍👍🙌. Now lower taxes pls and I’m ready to move !

Insane. My home city is becoming a place where FreeSpeech doesn’t exist. Thanks to Democrats.

If they are undocumented call ICE and make them go back to there country and come here legally or don’t come back at all!

That would be a fascinating Supreme Court Case.

Be like Nike and just do it!

Did NYC secede?

This is unbelievable. I say call ICE

👍👍👍

So now illegal aliens’ “right” to stay in the country supersedes the first amendment rights of US citizens? Really?

As we have already learned, leftists only support the 1st amendment when they approve of the speech.

Granted,it may be a horrible and shitty thing to say to someone,but we now have fines on speech? Because someone said something mean?And if I threaten to call the cops on someone robbing a store,that’s bad too? Now I can’t threaten to call authorities if you’re breaking the law?

Hmm. Employers hiring and profiting off of the labor of illegal immigrants? In America’s largest democrat-controlled city? How could this be!?

Throwing the “free speech” card to cover up your racism. We see you racists.

New York City laughs at your freedom of speech.

Honk honk

Anti-capitalist.
