Michael Johnston: “Our city employees do in fact communicate with ICE.”

“Not to my knowledge, Congresswoman. So they would only be fired for talking to federal law enforcement officers? No, that's incorrect, Congresswoman. Our city employees do. Denver passed in 2017, Mr. Mayor. Our city employees do in fact communicate with ICE. We do coordinate on multiple things with ICE. For instance, if there is a violent criminal warrant in the city, we do that together. No, we're talking before the warrants.” (03:09–03:12)
