flag Chicago bans federal immigration raids on city property without a warrant, calling it a defense against federal overreach.

flag On October 6, 2025, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson signed an executive order creating "ICE-free zones" on city-owned properties, banning federal immigration agents from using schools, libraries, parks, and other public spaces for enforcement operations without a warrant. flag The move, part of the Protecting Chicago Initiative, responds to federal crackdowns under the Trump Administration, including Operation Midway Blitz and a controversial raid that led to over 1,000 arrests in Illinois. flag The city will post signage and implement barriers to block federal use of previously used staging sites, with private property owners encouraged to participate. flag Johnson condemned the deployment of National Guard troops in the city as an "invasion" and vowed legal challenges to federal actions. flag The order does not affect lawful, non-enforcement uses of city property.
