City officials will continue to shield all immigrants in Chicago from federal agents, regardless of whether they are citizens, permanent residents or asylum seekers, despite the election of President-elect Donald Trump, Mayor Brandon Johnson said Tuesday.

In his first remarks on the outcome of the presidential race, Johnson said Chicago will not allow Chicago Police officers to help Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents deport Chicagoans. That assistance is now prohibited by city ordinance.

“We will not bend or break,” Johnson said. “Our values will remain strong and firm. We will face likely hurdles in our work over the next four years but we will not be stopped and we will not go back.”

One of Trump’s first acts as president-elect was to name former acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Tom Homan as his “border czar.” Homan will be charged with leading what the official platform of the Republican Party calls the “largest domestic deportation operation in American history.”
