A federal judge dismissed on July 25 the Trump administration’s lawsuit over Illinois’s sanctuary policies, holding that the policies either didn’t violate federal law or were protected by state sovereignty.
Filed in February, the administration’s lawsuit alleged that the state of Illinois, the city of Chicago, and Cook County had each implemented policies that illegally interfered with federal immigration enforcement. By restricting the flow of information to federal authorities, these policies conflicted with the Immigration and Nationality Act and unconstitutionally stepped on federal power, the administration argued.
