(The Center Square) – Illinois statehouse Republicans are pushing for a measure to give police conducting official business some distance from protesters as immigration enforcement ramps up.
“Just this month, the Department of Homeland Security reported that police under Governor Pritzker’s sanctuary jurisdiction refused to answer multiple calls for assistance when violent rioters physically assaulted federal immigration officers,” Grassley said.
“Failure to help provide relief makes you a party to the obstruction of justice.”Pritzker said he’s been in talks with law enforcement in Broadview.
Continual conversation with the governor’s office and the mayor’s office.”State Rep. Jeff Keicher, R-Sycamore, proposes House Bill 4142, setting a 14 foot distance for how close people can get to law enforcement conducting official activities.
Keicher said he’s received positive feedback from law enforcement organizations for his bill.
