New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is offering free legal help to a pizza delivery man who was detained by immigration authorities when he tried to deliver an order to a military base in Brooklyn.

Cuomo is offering to pay for Pablo Villavicencio's legal fees through the Legal Defense Project.

"Detaining a hardworking man, separating a father from his children and tearing apart communities doesn't make America safe, and a wrong minded immigration policy grounded in bias and cruelty doesn't make America great," Gov. Cuomo said in a statement.

Villavicencio was detained by ICE officials on June 1 when he tried to deliver a pizza to the Fort Hamilton military base in Brooklyn.

2. If you wants to really do something meaningful

He needs to kick ICE out of New York. Same with any other governor who wants to do the right thing.

3. He can't kick ICE out of NY - it's a federal agency

Whose function is to enforce immigration law. For what legal reason could Cuomo ban ICE from NY State?
