(The Hill) — Chicago has unveiled new tools for immigrants in the community to prepare for the possibility that the Trump administration will soon begin cracking down on crime and illegal immigration in the Democratic-run city.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) and the city’s Office of Immigrant, Migrant and Refugee Rights (IMRR) rolled out an updated website with step-by-step guidance on how immigrants can protect themselves, including with user-friendly content explaining their rights.
The website also provides an “essential checklist for new arrivals,” with links to resources to assist in securing food and shelter, obtaining proper government identification, enrolling children in school, riding public transportation and seeking help from local community centers, among other tasks.
