A newly-passed bill limits cooperation between ICE and city agencies, including the Baltimore Police Department.
The latter marks a historic first for the city, which used to have to seek state approval for any policy changes within the law enforcement agency.
City Council unanimously voted for the “Safe Cities and Communities Act”, with one member absent. It passed through both second and third reader at Monday night’s meeting. This, less than two weeks after it was discussed during a public safety meeting.
