@nbcchicago: Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker asked the Department of Homeland Security to pause immigration operations in the Chicago area over the Halloween weekend -- both in a press conference and a written letter obtained by NBC Chicago. The governor's request comes amid a controversial ramp-up of federal immigration operations in the Chicago area called "Operation Midway Blitz." #halloween #dhs #ice #borderpatrol #immigration #chicago #illinois

Incredibly sad that we now have to make this public statement

Megan C707 :

He’s simply asking for the children to not be subject to this trauma. People in the comments saying if you’re legal you have nothing to worry about.. what does that have to be with innocent bystanders being subjected to this..? Open your ears and listen

nick :

Embarrassing!! No class!

kathym483 :

JB is leading from the front!

AngryJasmine😤 :

The people who made it a point to mention how Charlie Kirk’s kids are forever traumatized somehow don’t understand that trauma happens to minority children as well. Let the kids have their Halloween in peace!

Diana Flores :

My 7-year-old daughter asked me why the drones were watching us and why Ice didn't like us. How do you explain to a 7-year-old girl that we live in a world full of hate and racism really sad 😔

I know what I’m gonna be for Halloween

katherinesilbersc :

Trump is in charge and probably won’t allow this peace treaty/cease fire. They have proven no concern for children.

user5363120390339 :

Aren’t these the same people that called the cops on you for having more than 5 people over for thanksgiving a few years ago?

BertoG762 :

Can this fat mf ever shut up he acts like he’s so innocent I’m not acting like Trump is innocent either but goddam does he and mayor Johnson act their best to be an angel 🤣

Dr. C Forbes :

Thank you for standing up for our people and our children.

LouCypherBC :

What law-abiding citizen is worried about immigration officers?

RRR :

It's nice to hear about human point of view!

Tater's mommy :

I wonder how much tourism is down?

Ed Vela :

I thank him so much for asking. He is humble. He is leading for his people not from his ego.
