Regarding Travel, ICE, & Protesting

CBS: Trump sending ICE tactical teams to Chicago, city officials confirm

ABC 7: Anti-ICE protests expected on Thursday as more ICE activity anticipated in Chicago

🚨 President Trump has just signed a renewed travel ban effective June 9th—blocking entry from 19 Muslim-majority and African nations. This discriminatory order echoes the original Muslim Ban and comes as ICE agents are raiding Chicago neighborhoods like Pilsen and the South Loop.

Immigrants following the rules are being detained. Fear is rising. Trust is eroding. Communities are outraged.

To those impacted: you are not alone. CAIR-Chicago is here for you.
