Meet Maria. A Chicago parent with kids who attend Rayito de Sol preschool, she saw ICE violently entered and abducted a teacher.

Learn more about her story here.

Yesterday, ICE violently entered Rayito de Sol preschool with kids inside. They then arrested a teacher without a warrant. 

This was domestic terrorism. DHS needs to free this teacher, apologize to the community, and leave Chicago IMMEDIATELY.

Ald. Matt Martin and @onenorthside.bsky.social are hosting a rally tonight in support of the preschool teacher who was taken by ICE this morning.

We need ICE out of our schools and out of Chicago!

ICE isn’t going after the worst of the worst. This morning, they took a preschool teacher without a warrant IN FRONT OF CHILDREN in my district.

November is Native American Heritage Month!

This month, we celebrate the many contributions of Native Americans and American Indians – including the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi nations, who lived in what we now know as Chicago.

But this is the world we’re living in. That’s why I’m demanding the DHS office of the Inspector General launch an investigation into ICE’s misconduct in Chicago.

What we witnessed were parents, children, seniors, and people with special needs lining up before 7, just to feed their families. Without #SNAP, people are going to starve.

Linda McMahon & #Project2025 architect Russell Vought decimated the federal special education department – firing the staffers who support 7.5 million students nationwide.

I’m proud to join @mcbath.house.gov and over 115 @housedemocrats.bsky.social in fighting for students with disabilities.

I'm working with my Democratic colleagues to prevent a Republican Health Care Crisis. Illinois households this year are paying an average of $260 a month for coverage through the Affordable Care Act. Next year, if the ACA tax credits expire, that average monthly rate will jump to $464.

Because of the #RepublicanShutdown, federal workers and contractors are missing their paychecks. Major utilities companies like ComEd should suspend penalties and shutoffs for these workers until the shutdown is over.

Trump's Big Ugly Bill is set to rip food assistance away from 360,000 people in Illinois – especially veterans and teenagers aging out of foster care. And the Trump administration has given our state less than 30 days to implement these changes.

See more below.

Rent & home prices in Chicago are too damn high. To make housing less expensive, we must build more units ASAP.

I was proud to speak at the American Institute of Architects Housing Summit about how we can remove barriers to building. Together, we can solve our housing crisis at home & nationwide.

I recently visited the Bright Star Church community shelter. They serve over 200 Chicagoans, but they’ve struggled this month as ICE targets their residents and volunteers.

Trump’s reign of terror has to end so shelters like Bright Star’s can continue to help our community.

The so-called party of ‘law and order’ were the perpetrators of dangerous chaos in my district this past week. ICE agents deployed tear gas without warning, nearly ran over an Alderman, and tackled people in the middle of the day who were trying to work to put food on the table for their families.

Following up on this.

This is Javier. He’s worked at Howe Corporation – a century-old family-owned and operated refrigerator manufacturer – since the ‘70s. Not a lot has changed about the business since then. (continued below)

Yesterday I volunteered with Greeley Elementary’s walking school bus — where school faculty and staff walk kids to school to protect them and their parents from ICE.

If you can, volunteer with your local school. We're only going to get through this together.

Kristi Noem claims ICE is going after criminals, but they’re actually hiring them. 
 
These thugs are not making America safer.

I recently volunteered at Hope’s Kitchen at Saint Demetrios Church on the North Side. With ICE wreaking havoc on Chicago, food pantries like these are actually seeing decreased numbers. (continued below)

Ruben Torres Maldonado, a Chicago painter for the past 20 years, is still in ICE custody — all while his daughter fights stage 4 cancer.
