That’s why Nassau County’s partnership with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is needed. This is not about politics — it’s about public safety. It’s about giving our officers the resources they need to take violent criminals off our streets and out of our neighborhoods.

Today our Nassau County police are doing the same, embedding 10 detectives with ICE to target gang members, sex traffickers, drug smugglers and organized theft crews. We’re also designating space in our correctional facilities so these individuals can be held securely until ICE can take custody of them.

But the ICE partnership is just one important tool in a much broader effort to protect Nassau families. As a county legislator, I’ve been proud to work with County Executive Bruce Blakeman and District Attorney Anne Donnelly to support record investments in public safety — because keeping our neighborhoods safe requires action at every level of government.

We have put more police officers on the street than ever before, built a state-of-the-art Police Training Village and expanded our patrol presence by 20 percent, leading to reduced crime and quicker response times.

We’ve implemented intelligence-led policing models to ensure that our resources are deployed where they’re needed most, and we’ve brought new technology directly to our officers, including in-car computers, GPS tracking and enhanced communications tools.

We’ve also invested in gunshot-detection systems like ShotSpotter, license plate readers and next-generation radios to help our officers respond faster and more effectively.

We’ve strengthened the district attorney’s office to meet the challenges posed by Albany’s reckless criminal justice reforms. That includes increasing staffing, adding prosecutors and support teams, and boosting the D.A.’s budget — all without raising taxes.

And we’re supporting community-oriented policing through expanded Problem-Oriented Policing units — officers who work hand in hand with community members to solve local crime problems and improve quality of life. These units are embedded across Nassau County and making a real difference every day.
