N.J. Gov. Murphy Backtracks on Dare to ICE at N.J. Home

New Jersey Democrat Gov. Phil Murphy’s office on Monday walked back remarks he made during an event live-streamed on his YouTube channel, where he appeared to challenge immigration officials to raid his multi-million-dollar property and implied he might be sheltering a person in the country illegally, New Jersey 101.5 reported.

Murphy, speaking Saturday at an event hosted by “Blue Wave New Jersey” at Montclair State University, dared ICE to come after someone he suggested had uncertain immigration status. But his office told New Jersey 101.5 that the governor’s words were “misinterpreted,” adding that no one was residing on his property in Middletown, New Jersey 101.5 reported.

Murphy’s spokesperson said the individual in question is a legal U.S. resident who was “consumed by fear” amid heightened immigration enforcement.
