A win in Illinois, at least for now. Let's hope judicial pushback on Trump's plans continues...

"A judge in Chicago on Thursday issued a temporary restraining order blocking the deployment of National Guard troops in Illinois"

Judge temporarily blocks Trump administration from sending National Guard troops to Chicago

The judge said the administration's directives violate the Constitution and would “only add fuel to the fire that the defendants themselves have started."

Urge your elected officials to stand up against ICE

ICE is terrorizing our community. From abducting immigrants and subjecting them to inhumane conditions to brutalizing protesters for exercising their First Amendment rights, it is time to hold ICE accountable.

"The U.S. Indian boarding school system sought to erase Native identity by forcibly removing children from their homes, languages, and cultures. Many endured neglect, abuse, and deep loss; thousands never made it back to their families."
