U.S. Rep. Dan Goldman has emerged as an immigration rights advocate since ICE agents began seizing the hallways of immigration court in 2025, and in the aftermath, he has proposed no less than five new bills to halt what he cites as an un-American attack on New Yorkers.
During a one-on-one interview with amNewYork, speaking on the legislation, Goldman shared that his grandmother escaped from antisemitism in Russia and immigrated to the United States, arriving in the Big Apple through Ellis Island.
