Camden County bans ICE from county properties without judicial warrant
Apr 16, 2026·Location: Camden County, NJ

Camden County commissioners passed a resolution on April 16, 2026, prohibiting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents from entering county-owned or leased buildings without a judicial warrant. The decision, which applies to parks, correctional facilities, county college, technical schools, and administrative buildings, was based on concerns about ICE's enforcement tactics and commitment to the health, safety, and welfare of all county residents. County Commissioner Director Louis Cappelli Jr. stated the agency has operated far from its homeland security mission and employed oppressive tactics reminiscent of the Gestapo.
