New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani said he is prepared to face arrest over his opposition to Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations, describing the defense of immigrant rights as central to his incoming administration.
In an interview with MS Now, Mamdani said he is "prepared for any consequence that comes for standing up for New Yorkers," adding: "I'm proud to inform people of their rights, and I can't think of a more American thing to do than to speak about the protections that we all have under the law."
