Under the order, private businesses can choose to display signage indicating that ICE cannot enter without a warrant—thereby designating “their property as part of a city-wide network of community spaces that stand together in affirming the safety, dignity, and belonging of all of our residents,” the mayor said.

Johnson touted the order for building “a broad civic shield that limits the reach of harmful enforcement practices. It strengthens neighborhood solidarity and it reaffirms Chicago’s role as a welcoming city.”

This only works if they are willing to enforce it. So they would need to order and get CPD on board with arresting ICE agents. And as much as I would love to see that happen, police tend to be the biggest bootlickers of them all.

Even the mayor stated federal agents wouldn't be arrested for violating this. So it is just pointless and performative.

It gives the populous more 'room' to intercede. Basically, a normal person at a cafe feels they have some permission structure to stand up to ice, after all, the governor and the mayor told them to. So they aren't rebelling, they are helping uphold the law. I think things like this actually goes a long way in moving the general public. At the very least it doesn't hurt

According to the mayor, while federal agents in violation of the order would not be arrested by Chicago police, the city will take the federal government to court if necessary.

So yeah... nope, they're not going to enforce it.

Ah, yes. The government that famously doesn't listen to court orders will be sued. I'm sure that lawsuit will finally bring a stop to all of this lawlessness this time.

The police are probably still pissed off they got tear gassed (that is for black people!). But the best anyone can hope for is "Yeah. This library is an ICE free zone. Two feet out the door isn't. So just wait there with your guns"

They can confiscate their stuff.

He said they would fight it in the courts. And we have seen how much respect they have for the judiciary and legal process.
