  • Pritzker and Johnson have vowed to uphold sanctuary status, stating that local authorities will not assist federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement in tracking down immigrants without legal status.
  • Chicago officials argue that the lawsuit is an attempt to intimidate jurisdictions that protect immigrant communities and that they will continue to uphold their values.
