The governor today noted the threat of immigration raids already is having an impact in Pilsen and Little Village.

U.S. Reps. Jesus "Chuy" Garcia and Delia Ramirez, Democrats who both represent parts of Chicago, were among the elected officials trying to sound the alarm at a press conference on Saturday morning, responding to the reported plans for raids.
