Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman announced support for reform allowing undocumented immigrants who have been in the country for seven years without committing crimes to gain legal status, excluding citizenship. This stance contrasts with Governor Kathy Hochul's recent legislation that prohibits local police from assisting ICE even when deporting serious criminals. Hochul also pardoned an immigrant with a 2015 assault conviction, despite it potentially affecting Supreme Court decisions on deportation rights for undocumented criminals. The article highlights Blakeman’s centrist approach to immigration compared to Hochul’s perceived extreme left stance.

-
wanting to work with the feds to deport brutal MS-13 gangbangers and other violent border-jumping criminals doesn’t make you an anti-immigrant extremist
right frames support for deportation as moderate, implying opposition is extreme
-
Blakeman’s idea is to let such peaceable types remain here and work legally — but without a path to citizenship
right supports limited legal status without path to citizenship
-
Gov. Kathy Hochul, meanwhile, recently signed a law that bans local cops from cooperation with ICE even to expel the worst criminals who have no right to be here
left criticizes policy as overly restrictive on deportation
-
Cozying up to the far left, the gov even just pardoned migrant Keisy Guerrero Mariano on a 2015 assault conviction — clemency issued just in time to prevent the US Supreme Court from taking up Mariano’s case and likely overturning a lower-court ruling that created new rights for “undocumented” criminals facing deportation
right criticizes pardon as overly lenient on criminal immigrants

Nassau Exec Bruce Blakeman just proved that wanting to work with the feds to deport brutal MS-13 gangbangers and other violent border-jumping criminals doesn’t make you an anti-immigrant extremist: He came out for reforms to let illegal migrants gain some legal status if they’ve been in the country for seven years without committing any fresh crimes.
asserted
they → prove → crimes
That shows the GOP gov nominee is with the broad middle of Americans on these issues — welcoming to migrants who look to play by the rules, but un-welcoming to the bad guys.
asserted
who → show → guys
Blakeman’s idea is to let such peaceable types remain here and work legally — but without a path to citizenship, for which they’d need to repair their original illegal entry.
asserted
they → let → entry
That’s a nod to how a complete “amnesty” is not only unwise (since it’d encourage future illegal immigration) but a political non-starter, whereas his plan is something Republicans such as President Donald Trump might go along with.
uncertain
Republicans → ’ → Trump
Trump, after all, at times has suggested leniency for illegal migrants who work (as Blakeman puts it) in agriculture, “hospitality, healthcare, landscapers, there’s a lot of different industries that need those workers” — he’s even called for something much like Blakeman’s plan.
uncertain
he → suggest → plan
Gov. Kathy Hochul, meanwhile, recently signed a law that bans local cops from cooperation with ICE even to expel the worst criminals who have no right to be here.
asserted
who → sign → right
She’d plainly prefer ICE not deport the 2,200 rapists, murderers, child predators and so on that it nabbed in New York in July alone
Cozying up to the far left, the gov even just pardoned migrant Keisy Guerrero Mariano on a 2015 assault conviction — clemency issued just in time to prevent the US Supreme Court from taking up Mariano’s case and likely overturning a lower-court ruling that created new rights for “undocumented” criminals facing deportation.
Again proving she has no shame at all, Hochul’s still denouncing Blakeman as an immigration extremist.
asserted
Hochul → prefer → extremist
