Jeff Sessions slams 'state of lawlessness' in Chicago

Attorney General Jeff Sessions heaped praise upon Miami-Dade County on Wednesday for coming into compliance with federal immigration law, and called on Chicago to do the same.

“Your success is even more remarkable since violent crime is surging in most places across the country,” Sessions said in prepared remarks for a speech at the Port of Miami in South Florida. He praised the county for cutting down on violent crime through “hard work, professional policing and a rededication to the rule of law,” as well as proving to the Department of Justice it is now in “full compliance” with federal immigration law.
