Criminal Immigrants Arrested in Illinois

• 🎯 Kristi Noem highlighted four specific cases of individuals arrested by ICE and HSI officers in Illinois.
• 🚨 These arrests were made without the assistance or support of the governor or mayor, with federal officers acting independently.

Sanctuary Policies and Consequences

• ⚖️ Noem criticized Governor Pritsker and Mayor Johnson for their sanctuary policies, stating they prioritize criminals over residents.
• 📈 In the last 7 months, ICE issued over 1664 detainers in Chicago, a 106% increase under the Biden administration.
• 📉 Only 8% of these detainers were honored by Chicago leadership, meaning many individuals with criminal records are released back onto the streets.
• 🗣️ The debate over sanctuary policies has real consequences for law enforcement, families, and businesses in the community.
