Chicago alderperson: I went over to the hospital and I simply asked the ICE agents if they had a signed judicial warrant for the individual that they were trying to detain inside of the emergency room. No one was harassing the ICE agents. In fact, the only person harassed in that

Our communities in Chicago are experiencing the violence of Trump’s unconstitutional and unlawful ice activity. Yesterday they slammed a man’s head against a wall, tear gassed residents near an elementary school and handcuffed me for asking for a signed judicial warrant.

ICE took her mother in Chicago. Now a 6-year-old is left without a guardian or a legal path to reunite in Honduras. A story about the children left behind by deportations—and the lack of infrastructure to care for them in the U.S or for reunification. https://t.co/XDLqFP9o9J

On June 4, her mother was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement outside an office in downtown Chicago during what was supposed to be a routine check-in.

The arrest of the SEIU CA President & protesters is a disgrace to our country — and part of a terrifying trend local electeds have also been facing. We stand for First Amendment rights. We stand for democracy. We stand with David Huerta & call for his immediate release.

Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And 750,000 SEIU workers are standing with him. https://t.co/WYzt2Bv38I
