[“Our police officers will not assist federal immigration enforcement without a valid judicial warrant,” [Mayor] Solomon said the statement. “No city-owned property will be used as a staging ground for raids. That’s the law in Jersey City. More than 40 percent of Jersey City residents were born in another country. You should not be not a target—you are our neighbors. You built this city. You belong here.”]
