联邦特工在芝加哥加大移民执法力度 引发抗议
摘要
联邦特工增加了在芝加哥市中心的部署，引发了对移民执法行动的紧张局势和抗议。
武装联邦特工加大了在芝加哥市中心的存在，开展移民执法行动，引发了当地官员的抗议和批评。
周日，身穿战术装备的特工在显著区域巡逻，吸引了居民和游客的关注。活动人士紧随特工，表达对加强执法的反对。
芝加哥市长布兰登·约翰逊谴责联邦行动，称“当芝加哥市民和游客享受另一个美丽的周日时，他们却被戴着面罩、炫耀自动武器的联邦特工无故恐吓。”伊利诺伊州州长JB·普利兹克也表达了类似看法，强调这是一种“恐吓行为，在我们的社区制造恐惧，损害我们的企业”。
国土安全部将此次行动命名为“中途闪击行动”，旨在逮捕在境内非法且有犯罪记录的人员。
针对执法行动，抗议活动爆发。在芝加哥西部郊区布罗德维尤，联邦特工向试图阻挡进入移民与海关执法局（ICE）设施的抗议者发射了化学剂。
联邦在芝加哥的加强部署紧随总统唐纳德·特朗普宣布向波特兰派遣军队保护联邦设施之后。预计其他城市也将出现类似联邦干预，包括孟菲斯，田纳西州州长比尔·李表示联邦当局预计很快抵达。
当地官员和社区领导人持续表达对联邦政府做法的担忧，强调在解决公共安全和移民问题时需要社区信任与合作。
