Back in June we offered Chicago Aldmn Cardenas, Flores introduce anti-"hate speech" resolution; Mexico-linked ICIRR cheers. The usual suspects are back:

Chicago lawmakers added their [unanimous] voices Wednesday to the call for a moratorium on raids and deportations, an action they hope will lead to comprehensive immigration reform.

..."Immigrants are being uprooted, they are being persecuted. They are losing their jobs, they are losing hope," said Ald. George Cardenas (12th).

...The "Ya Basta" Campaign, an initiative launched in August by the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights, called the resolution's passage a successful first step in stopping the raids...

As detailed at the last link, the ICIRR is headed by someone with a series of links to the Mexican government.

Another person quoted in support of the resolution was Emma Lozano of Pueblo Sin Fronteras:

"This is torture. Families will breathe a sigh of relief when Congress and the president call for a moratorium, which is the first step to legalization... We're sending the message from Chicago, saying we're not going to tolerate this."
