CHICAGO ( NewsNation) — Migrants in Chicago are growing increasingly anxious as they brace for potential mass deportation raids, which could begin as soon as Tuesday. On Monday, President Donald Trump signed several executive orders related to immigration, including declaring a national emergency at the border.

Until the order, which Trump signed the same day he was inaugurated as the 47th president, the U.S. government has, at least the late 1800s, considered the child of any immigrant born on U.S. soil an automatic citizen, even to a mother in the United States illegally.

A coalition of Democratic attorneys general on Tuesday filed a lawsuit in Massachusetts seeking to block President Donald Trump's attempt to revoke the right to automatic birthright citizenship.

Last year, Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul wrote non-home-rule counties in Illinois, which is every country except Cook County, do not have the power to secede.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta and attorneys general from 10 other Democratic-led states on Thursday said the Trump administration could not “commandeer” state and local law enforcement for its federal immigration enforcement efforts.
