“When the Trump Justice Department unlawfully tried to bully cities into choosing between our values and our public safety, Chicago fought back. I am grateful to the US Conference of Mayors for standing united with us to protect our principles and push back against the misguided policies and ideologies of the Trump administration. This decision is a win for cities across America, and a victory for the rule of law. Chicago will always stand up for our values, defend the rights of our residents and work to preserve our most fundamental American ideals.”
