| New Haven bars workers from spending city funds on Avelo while it flies ICE deportation charters |
| The city of New Haven has restricted all city employees, grant recipients and contractors from using public funds to support Avelo Airlines as long as it continues to run ICE deportation charters for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security β and it's not alone. In recent weeks, several community organizations also have dropped Avelo - the dominant carrier by far at Tweed New Haven Regional Airport - as a sponsor, including Puerto Ricans United Inc., which organizes the Puerto Rican Festival of New Haven each August, and the Faxon Law New Haven Road Race, which brings 5,000 runners to town each Labor Day.Β Mark Zaretsky/New Haven Register keady | | | | | | | | | | | New Haven bars workers from spending city funds on Avelo while it flies ...
