It is with great sadness that we mourn the loss of the @Chicago_Police officer who was tragically killed today in Gage Park while bravely serving and protecting our community. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and colleagues during this difficult time.
Earlier today, we lost one of our own. An on-duty police officer was fatally shot while responding to a person with a gun call. Please pray for this officer’s family, loved ones, partner and all of our Chicago Police officers who are grieving this tremendous loss.

@RepAaronOrtiz - “Our current deportation system punishes people twice. It is racist and must end. In Illinois we are doing our part. Now @DHSgov must issue a new prosecutorial discretion memo that narrows deportation as much as possible!”
