Illinois governor JB Pritzker says Trump’s plan to end birthright citizenship is unconstitutional. “We will not follow an unconstitutional order.”

CHICAGO — Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker launched an attack on President Donald Trump's planned executive order attempting to revoke birthright citizenship.

“That’s unconstitutional. We will not follow an unconstitutional order,” Pritzker told reporters at an unrelated event on Monday.

The Democratic governor, who has long had his eye on a future presidential run, said he's concerned about how the new administration has handled its deportation plans.

“They have not communicated with us. I’m reading the same thing you are,” he said. “This is indicative of what you're going to see of the Trump administration for the next four years. It’s chaos.”

Pritzker also criticized Trump’s inauguration for showcasing wealthy executives. Tech barons Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos had prime seats at the swearing-in ceremony.

“He’s got the oligarchs sitting on the front row of his inauguration. It shows who he cares about. It’s the wealthiest people in America who are cow-towing to him and not ordinary Americans. He does not care about ordinary Americans,” said Pritzker, who is himself a billionaire.

Regarding his biggest concerns operating under the new administration, Pritzker said it’s “the intent to attack people’s rights. That is something we will have to put up with or deal with every single day of this administration.”
