This lawsuit comes shortly after Attorney General Pam Bondi ordered a freeze on federal funding to sanctuary cities the same day she was sworn in.
The Justice Department on Thursday sued Illinois and the city of Chicago for allegedly having interfered with federal immigration laws.
The lawsuit was filed against Gov. J.B. Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, Democrats, and others in the state.
The lawsuit alleges Illinois and Chicago's sanctuary city laws are "designed to and in fact interfere with and discriminate against the Federal Government's enforcement of federal immigration law in violation of the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution," according to Fox News.
