Dubbed the New York State Liberty Act, the legislation would make New York a “sanctuary” state by prohibiting the detention of undocumented individuals on immigration detainers unless there was a warrant from a judge.
It would also, among other things, prevent state and local law enforcement agencies from stopping or questioning a person based on perceived immigration status.

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
