Militant/Jorge Lertora

CHICAGO—Socialist Workers Party presidential candidate Róger Calero joined a protest August 5 of 35 people outside City Hall here. The picket line was called to protest the cooperation of the Chicago Police Department with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Authorities have been holding 59 people in jail, some for as long as five months, who were originally detained for traffic violations and other misdemeanors and are now under investigation for immigration violations.
