Boston Mayor Michelle Wu announced plans to identify property owners who may be leasing parking spaces to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in the city. ICE is seeking 249 contiguous parking spaces near its facilities, as reported by the Boston Herald. Wu's office intends to file public records requests to determine which property owners have shown interest in leasing to ICE, aiming to inform them of the city's opposition to such arrangements. Wu expressed concerns about the implications of ICE operations, referencing a recent incident in Maine that resulted in a fatal shooting involving an ICE officer. The Department of Homeland Security responded, criticizing Wu's approach and asserting that private property owners should have the right to lease their property to federal law enforcement.
