Watchdog: Chicago mayor sued over vow to resist Trump deportation policies

Sharyl Attkisson-

Judicial Watch announced it has filed a lawsuit against Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson for records related to his pledge to resist federal immigration enforcement under the Trump administration (Judicial Watch Inc. v. Office of the Mayor (No. 2025-CH-00347)).

On November 11, 2024, Mayor Johnson reaffirmed Chicago’s status as a “sanctuary city” during a press conference, stating the city would shield all immigrants, regardless of status, from federal agents. He also vowed to fight any federal efforts to block funding for the city due to non-compliance with immigration enforcement.

According to WTTW News, Johnson declared, “We will not bend or break. Our values will remain strong and firm. We will face likely hurdles in our work over the next four years, but we will not be stopped and we will not go back.” more

  1. Johnson is a moron. He’s the teachers union puppet.

    Spending $574.5 million on illegals that should have gone to solve the issues of the legal citizens of Chicago is despicable. He raised taxes to pay fir it (not as much as he wanted )

    And now his teachers are demanding ridiculous raises for producing students who can’t pass reading, writing, and math tests and they will get it.

    JB Pritzker should be added to the suit. The oversized pompous billionaire guv is also threatening to not cooperate with the order

    Good to know Illinois LEGAL CITIZENS are not being well represented by their leaders

    But they get what they voted for 🤬
