ILLINOIS (KFVS) - Governor JB Pritzker will hold a news conference on Monday afternoon on weekend protests and Border Patrol agents in downtown Chicago.

He’s expected to condemn the federal actions and discuss how the state might respond to any illegal actions by federal authorities.

According to the Associated Press , on Sunday, dozens of armed federal agents, in full tactical gear, walked the streets of some of the city’s most prominent tourist and shopping areas.

They reported there was repeated conflict at an ICE building in Broadview, west of Chicago, where federal authorities on Friday and Saturday fired pepper balls and tear gas at protesters.

The immigration enforcement began earlier in September.
