CHICAGO MAYOR BLOCKS ICE’S ACCESS TO POLICE DATABASE,
Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is refusing ICE
to have access to the police database. Like all Democrats, she places illegal
aliens above American citizens.
Sooner or later the
voters will get wise and then Democrats will have to depend on the illegal vote
to get elected at all. Of course, it is Chicago, so anything is possible. It’s
not who votes, it’s who counts the votes that really matter. Lightfoot should
be prepared to lose millions from the federal government.
Although courts have ruled that the feds can’t
cut off money to cities, that changes when a city cuts off the access the feds
are paying for.
From The Blaze - Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot (D) announced Wednesday that she has cut off
Immigration and Customs Enforcement from accessing the city’s police databases
in an effort to prevent illegal immigrants from being targeted in potential
deportation raids.
Speaking at press conference, Lightfoot said, “Chicago is and will always
be a welcoming city that will never tolerate ICE tearing our families apart.”
With that, Lightfoot went on to explain she had “personally spoken with
ICE leadership in Chicago” to express her opposition to raids of any kind,
before detailing the measures her administration has taken over the past few
weeks to hinder ICE’s efforts.
Lightfoot said “the Chicago Police Department will not cooperate with
ICE. That means that they will not team up with ICE to detain any resident.
We’ve also cut off access from ICE to any CPD databases and that will remain permanent.”
Despite Lightfoot’s efforts, several immigrant rights groups in Chicago
say the mayor isn’t doing enough. The Chicago
Sun-Times reported that a coalition
of organizations are urging Mayor Lightfoot to sign an executive order banning
all Department of Homeland Security agencies — not just ICE — from accessing
police data.
