NO TRUMP, NO ICE! CATA is joining forces with Milwaukee Fights Back to mobilize for a protest this Saturday at the Great Lakes Naval Base, where federal forces have been gathering.
The protest march in Chicago - the second in only four days staged in opposition to the Trump admin's targeteting of Chicagoland for an immigration blitz - has stepped off from Congress Plaza and is heading north down Michigan Avenue. Hundreds of people have joined the march so far.
For the second time in four days, a large protest march is assembling in Chicago's Congress Plaza. Organizing groups, incl. the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights, called for today's protest in response to the DHS announcing "Operation Midway Blitz" targeting Chicagoland yesterday.
