YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSupport our work
Amid federal immigration raids in the Chicagoland area, the mayor of one Chicago suburb is on the frontlines of the anti-ICE protest movement. Mayor Daniel Biss says what he has seen of federal immigration raids in Evanston, Illinois, amounts to an "invasion from our own federal government." His office is now launching investigations into reports of federal agents brutalizing and threatening community members. "They appear to have just started beating people up for no reason," Biss says. "If that was anybody except for a federal agent, they would be under arrest."
