Chicago unveils tools for immigrants ahead of potential Trump crackdown

Chicago has unveiled new tools for immigrants in the community to prepare for the possibility that the Trump administration will soon begin cracking down on crime and illegal immigration in the Democratic-run city.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) and the city’s Office of Immigrant, Migrant and Refugee Rights (IMRR) rolled out an updated website with step-by-step guidance on how immigrants can protect themselves, including with user-friendly content explaining their rights.

The website also provides an “essential checklist for new arrivals,” with links to resources to assist in securing food and shelter, obtaining proper government identification, enrolling children in school, riding public transportation and seeking help from local community centers, among other tasks.

Johnson and the IMRR also unveiled the Family Preparedness Campaign, aimed at providing Chicagoans with tools needed “to prepare in case of family separation due to federal immigration enforcement.”

The campaign encourages Chicagoans to formulate a “Family Preparedness Plan” and provides printable and fillable packets from community organizations to help organize essential information in case of potential law enforcement action.

The website says a plan should include “talking with your family or loved one about what to do in case of separation/emergency”; “creating a binder or folder gathering important identification documents”; “arranging guardianship for a loved one or a child”; and “updating emergency contact information with schools, doctors, and employers when traveling.”

The city government will also hold virtual “Family Preparedness Workshops” every Thursday in September, starting this week, in partnership with the Chicago Legal Protection Fund, Chicago Public Libraries and The Resurrection Project. The workshops will review much of the material provided online and will give the opportunity to ask questions directly to community organizations.

“The Family Preparedness Campaign gives our communities the tools they need to stay informed in this moment,” Johnson said in a_statement.

Conspiracy to assist illegal immigration and obstruction. Declare Chicago in insurrection against the United States and arrest the city government.

"step-by-step guidance on how immigrants can protect themselves"

RATS are retarded. Immigrants are not illegal aliens.

Aiding and abetting federal crimes?

What I would love to see is the Mayor of New Orleans invite the NG to tackle crime in that dump. Let Chicagoans enjoy their violent city. Trump knows he can’t send in the NG to Chicago, and the fatso and pinhead know he can’t send in the NG. But it makes great theater for the democrats. Trump has them on record and on every media outlet defending violent crime.

As far as Pam Bondi will go is to sue him, but even that hasn’t happened.

When did illegal immigrants gain the same meaning as immigrants? Have the laws changed?

When did illegal immigrants gain the same meaning as immigrants? Have the laws changed?

"There is extensive evidence that communist regimes have changed the meanings of words and forbidden words as a method of political control and propaganda. This practice, which is often called "linguistic manipulation," aims to eliminate dissenting thought and shape the public's perception of reality."
