This Indigenous Peoples' Day, Chicago honors and celebrates the rich cultural heritage of one of the largest urban Indigenous communities in the country, and the history of our first residents, including the Council of the Three Fires: the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi Nations, and many other tribes, such as the Miami, Ho-Chunk, Menominee, Sac, and Fox. Embodying the Soul of Chicago, our Indigenous communities continue to contribute to the life of this city, celebrating their heritage, practicing traditions, and caring for the land and waterways.

We will not tolerate ICE agents violating our residents’ constitutional rights nor will we allow the federal government to disregard our local authority. ICE agents are detaining elected officials, tear-gassing protestors, children, and Chicago police officers, and abusing Chicago residents. We will not stand for that in our city. With this Executive Order, Chicago stands firm in protecting the Constitutional rights of our residents and immigrant communities and upholding our democracy.
