Illinois and the City of Chicago filed a new lawsuit against the Trump administration Monday, alleging unlawful activity and rights violations by agencies pursuing an immigration campaign in the city.
The lawsuit challenges ICE and CBP practices of making warrantless arrests and trespassing on private and government property. It alleges the use of tear gas and other less-lethal methods “without warning against persons who are not resisting.”
“The Trump administration has repeatedly violated the law and undermined public trust,” said Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson. “These actions weren’t just unlawful; they were cruel, needlessly inflicting fear and harm on our communities. My administration will forcefully protect our residents’ rights and hold anyone accountable who abuses their power. Nobody is above the law.
