The far-right attempt to rollback Chicago's Sanctuary City protections:
📣 Potentially illegal
📣 Discourages crime reporting
📣 Encourages racial profiling
📣 Leaves the city open to lawsuits
📣 Allows ICE to use CPD, at taxpayer's expense
wbez.org WBEZ @wbez.org · Jan 10
Immigration advocates and attorneys are concerned about an ordinance that would allow Chicago police to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement, saying it would open the door to violations that could leave taxpayers on the hook for multimillion dollar settlements. www.wbez.org/2025/01/10/i...
Immigration advocates warn a proposal for Chicago police to help ICE could be illegal
The proposal would allow police to help with deportations, but the city’s law department says it violates state law. Advocates say it could also have a chilling effect on immigrant communities.
