Gov. Bruce Rauner Monday signed into law one bill that would
protect immigrants who are in the country illegally from being detained
solely because of their immigration status and another that would
automatically register many Illinoisans to vote.
The Republican governor’s approval of the controversial immigration
legislation marks a victory for immigrant advocates and a defeat for the
more conservative members of his party, who had lobbied against it.

The Illinois TRUST Act — a bill that was passed by the state’s
General Assembly in May — bans local law enforcement from stopping,
arresting, searching or detaining anyone based solely on immigration
status.
More controversially, it bars local officials from detaining anyone
solely on the basis of a federal immigration detainer, unless federal
officials have a criminal warrant.
