At a Queens town hall, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio‑Cortez announced upcoming “legal observer” trainings — described as a “102” follow‑up to earlier “know your rights” sessions — in partnership with Hands Off NYC to teach activists how to legally observe, document, film and take notes during ICE operations without impeding law enforcement. She cited recent ICE‑related shootings and criticized an escalation in enforcement, urging community preparedness and legal support. Critics, including former ICE officials and right‑wing outlets, accused the trainings of encouraging obstruction or targeting of agents. Ocasio‑Cortez’s office framed the sessions as lawful civic education and community defense. She urged peaceful documentation. (ocasiocortez.com)
