NEW HAVEN, Conn. (WTNH) — Mayor Justin Elicker is urging for changes at Tweed New Haven Airport in response to recent alleged U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activity there.
Elicker formally asked Tweed to “discontinue providing any preferential parking to ICE,” facilitate demonstrators, and post signage notifying community members of their rights, among other requests that the airport “not exceed any federal requirements by extending additional assistance to ICE.”

Administration,please delete repeat replies.
Tweed is a pretty small airport. One or two gates at most. This is more a symbolic gesture than anything.
And this is why it's important to know the party of a candidate whether it's for President or dog catcher because it tells you a lot about the person. Too many times in local elections now, the candidates hide their affiliation.
Mayor sounds like whiny twink.
Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island…once the birthplace of liberty, now the east cost enclave of communism and anti-Americanism.
