00:00In the United States, officials in Illinois and Minnesota are challenging the mass deployment of immigration agents in the Chicago and Minneapolis regions.
00:09In two separate federal lawsuits, the officials argue the move violates the U.S. Constitution, specifically the Tenth Amendment, and infringes on states' rights.
00:18In this regard, Illinois is asking the courts to block customs and border protection from conducting immigration enforcement without congressional approval, while Minnesota is demanding an end to the militarized search of federal agents in the twin cities.
00:35Both lawsuits cite aggressive federal tactics such as raids, biometric surveillance, geogas, and helicopter operations as unconstitutional and politically coercive.
