This claim prompted a statement from ICE clarifying that thier agents had not visited the school; rather, it was U.S.\u200b secret Service agents who were there to investigate an alleged threat. Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson emphasized the city&#8217;s commitment to being a welcoming environment and urged the public not to spread unverified information that could incite fear. The confusion led to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/chinas-economic-downfall-spells-trouble-for-latin-america-opportunity-for-us\/\" title=\"China&#039;s economic decline poses risks for Latin America, but opens doors for the US.\">widespread media reports<\/a> and comments from Illinois Governor J.B.\u200d Pritzker, who\u2063 criticized the narrative surrounding the incident. The Illinois Republican Party accused Democratic leaders\u2062 of furthering fear \u200cfor\u200c political gain. Chicago Public Schools maintains a policy of \u200bnot inquiring about students&#8217; immigration status and will not allow ICE entry without a warrant.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Chicago school officials mistake Secret Service for ICE<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1949493\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>(The Center Square) &ndash; Chicago Public Schools officials incorrectly said U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agents attempted to enter a South Side elementary school Friday and were turned away. After CPS made the announcement, ICE released a statement saying that its agents had not visited the school. Instead, school officials turned away U.S. Secret Service agents who had come to investigate an alleged threat.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson addressed the issue on X.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Chicago will always be a welcoming city, we will always uphold the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/texas-gov-greg-abbott-begins-busing-illegal-immigrants-to-third-democrat-run-city-chicago\/\" title=\"Texas Gov.

Today Secret Service agents, not ICE agents, were present at John H. Hamline Elementary School. While people across the city are worried about heightened immigration enforcement, it is imperative that individuals not spread unverified information that sparks fear across the city,&rdquo; Johnson posted.<\/p>\n<p>Before CPS acknowledged its mistake, <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">numerous media outlets reported<\/a> a raid by ICE and Gov. J.B. Pritzker commented on X.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;After a week of Republicans sowing fear and chaos, the first reports of raids in Chicago are at an elementary school.

The Governor of this state, along with multiple Democrat officials, ran with unsubstantiated reporting because it is convenient to their political agenda. Not one has walked back their false claim.
