Another federal judge in a dirty black robe, an Øbama appointee at that.
The goal of the left is the destruction of the suburbs and housing illegals in suburbs is a step in their goal. Look at how this SOB judge couches it.
I hope these counties appeal and do not settle.
A federal judge ruled Monday that the States of Emergency declarations by Rockland and Orange counties to prevent New York City from renting rooms there for some of the asylum-seekers who have arrived in the city are unconstitutional.
District Court Judge Nelson S. Roman granted the New York Civil Liberties Union’s motion for preliminary injunction, barring the counties from enforcing their executive orders targeting recently-arrived immigrants.
The court found those orders intentionally discriminate against the plaintiffs and violate their rights to travel freely within New York State. According to the ruling, the emergency orders "expressly" classify persons "based on national origin and alienage" and contemporaneous, comments made by county officials suggest "discriminatory motive."
"Today’s decision sends a loud and clear message not only to Rockland and Orange Counties, but to all of the counties who have issued these discriminatory executive orders: the Constitution does not allow you to build walls around your county limits," Amy Belsher, director of Immigrants’ Rights Litigation at the New York Civil Liberties Union, said. "Instead of playing politics with the lives of some of the most vulnerable, our state must uphold its legacy of being a beacon of refuge and new beginnings."
Rockland County Executive Ed Day said his administration is considering all legal options including an appeal of the decision.
