Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D-IL) said he’s planning to protect illegal immigrants living in his state from being deported by federal authorities.  

“I’m going to do everything that I can to protect our undocumented,” Pritzker said to MSNBC host Joy Reid. “They’re residents of our state, and I also obviously need to make sure that whatever they’re [the federal government] doing in our state that it is actually within federal law or state law for them to do it there.”
