Chicago Mayor Would Like President-elect Trump to Change Tone on Immigration
The President-elect sitting down with Chicago’s Democratic mayor, who brought a message from other mayors.
FOX’s Jon Decker reports from the White House:
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel used a 45-minute meeting with the President-elect to urge him to reconsider his positions on immigration.
Emanuel also hand-delivered a letter from the mayors of some of the nation’s largest cities urging Mr. Trump to continue protections offered to young immigrants instituted under President Obama:
(Emmanuel) “They’re trying to achieve the American dream. No fault of their own, their parents came here. They are something we should hold up and embrace.”
Mr. Trump pledged to deport millions of immigrants living in the country illegally. Emanuel has repeatedly insisted Chicago would remain a sanctuary city.
