Rep. Kelly releases statement on ICE arrests in Chicago

CHICAGO -- U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly (IL-02) released the following statement after several people were detained by U.S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement (ICE) agents outside an office of the Intensive Supervision Appearance Program (ISAP) in Chicago:

"Chicagoans reported to a routine immigration check-in yesterday — and instead were taken by ICE," said Kelly. "These unlawful detentions caused chaos, and multiple aldermen and community members tried to protect their neighbors. They were following the law — but the Trump administration does not care about law and order. ICE only cares about meeting random deportation quotas. They’re detaining moms and separating families. It’s cruel and reckless."
