The City of Chicago has sued the Trump administration over an executive order that aims to withhold federal funds from sanctuary cities.
The lawsuit, filed in the Northern District of California, argues that the Trump administration’s actions violate the Constitution’s Spending Clause, separation of powers, and the Administrative Procedure Act.
Meanwhile, a federal court has temporarily blocked the Trump administration from implementing the executive order, ruling in favor of cities and counties, and clarifying that this block applies to executive orders and government actions that postdate the block.
Chicago’s corporation counsel emphasizes that the lawsuit aims to protect the city’s residents and ensure they receive the support they need, as the city’s policies prioritize building trust between immigrant communities and local law enforcement.
This lawsuit challenges the Trump administration’s directive to pause federal funding, arguing it violates the Administrative Procedure Act and the First Amendment.
