Chicago (WLS) – People moved to the streets on Saturday in Chicago and the country to protest against President Donald Trump's policies.
The protests came at a time when the US Supreme Court issued a new ruling prohibiting migrants to be deported temporarily under the law of foreign enemies. The Supreme Court acted to resume the emergency from the American Civil Liberties Union.
Trump's immigration policies were just one topic that demonstrators demonstrate.

There were huge crowds that appeared on Saturday to Dali Plaza in the center of Chicago, with a large number of people and signs of protest. All of them said that they are protesting the Trump administration when it comes to court flow, immigration and foreign affairs laws. They said now it's time to stand in front of the administration.
Chicago sent a statement to the Trump administration, increasingly frustrated by many president's policies.
“Science, universities, research, freedom, and there are no arrests without due legal procedures, do not deport people to other countries without due legal procedures.”
A number of organizations joined the assembly in Dali Plaza, where they protested the reproductive rights, immigration and international peace laws and federal financing of critical programs.
“People are wake up alive, as they pay attention and are ready to go out and do something against this terrible administration,” said Oak Park.
Protests against administration continued throughout the country as well as suburbs throughout Illinois.

The crowd also gathered in Arlington Heights on Saturday, in protest for the same reason.
In Chicago, the gathering lasted a few hours and followed a march across the city center.
One of the organizers, Tessa Bonnie, an assistant professor at the University of Illinois Chicago, said that they are already facing an adulterer.
“Our federal financing is at risk or ended,” Bonnie said. “We are very concerned about the attacks related to education, and attacks on our students.”
Others planned to continue the protests worldwide, as one of the women said that it was planning a march from Philadelphia to Washington, DC, hoping to share the stories of people affected by politics decisions.
“We people are what the difference happens. If we all stand together, we can make a change in our government,” said Judy Shatkin from Democracy 12.

There was no counter -proteins in Chicago on Saturday, and ABC7 continued with Illinois the Republican Party to comment but he did not hear.
“Sir, you should do the right thing and you are not, and for this reason I am here,” said Mike Demarino, a Chicago resident.
The organizers said that this will not be the last time they meet to gather against the administration. Many planned protests in the coming weeks.
