11.02.2026 18:43 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0SPRINGFIELD, Mass. โ One of the largest independently owned supermarket chains in New England on Wednesday became the latest business to partner in a nationwide program by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to ensure a legal and more secure work force. IMAGE is a voluntary program that allows private industry to partner with ICE to reduce unauthorized employment and the use of fraudulent identity documents. Big Y is a family owned and oriented retail food company serving people's at-home food needs.
Attention to my folks from Western & Central Mass / Connecticut:
Big Y Licks ICE Boots
Since this is a -voluntary- program, it means Big Y leadership actively sought the cooperation of ICE.
