Claim 2: “New York Governor Kathy Hochul signed legislation that bars masked US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents from operating in the state”
MISLEADING
The evidence indicates Governor Hochul signed a law barring local and state officials from working with ICE in jails, and another part of the law bans federal law enforcement from using state/local facilities. However, the specific claim that it 'bars masked ICE agents from operating in the state' is not explicitly confirmed in the provided text; the text focuses on cooperation in jails and facility use.
