Easily several hundred people have packed into this plaza in Chicago's North Center tonight in response to ICE abducting a daycare worker early this morning.
This is a neighborhood that has largely been spared until now from the "Midway Blitz" terror campaign. But everyone knows someone affected.

Young people were Dr. Jane's greatest reason for hope.
She saw how passionate, how committed, and how involved young leaders are. That was true wherever she went – and it's true here at home, in Canada, too.
