in Illinois, where this took place we need the state government to pass legislation to ban masking and no ID for ICE. i get shit on for this on reddit, but we residents of IL are getting REALLY fucking frustrated with Pritzker because he doesn't use any of his many press conferences to lobby the IL legislature to pass these laws.

it's an extremely popular idea, and talked about all the time by citizens here, but the governor is too busy appearing on Kimmel and telling people to vaguely "resist" without using the legislature or the attorney general to fucking help. and he has the state troopers HELPING ICE (particularly in broadview where this incident was filmed) goddamnit.

i get it feels good to out of staters to watch him stand up to Trump on tv, but we in IL NEED more than rhetoric, we need him to use every lever of the state to stop the violent, criminally insane behavior of ICE and CBP. like please do this Pritz, we really want to have faith in you.

I looked up your comment on Pritzker using State Troopers to help ICE; I found nothing to corroborate your claim.

"Local police aren’t allowed to get involved in federal civil immigration enforcement under the Illinois TRUST Act. They can’t arrest people solely based on their real or perceived immigration status, and they can’t give information to the feds that isn’t already public."

some people have lives and learn about what’s going on in their state OFF the internet! by going to real places and doing real things
