Protesters met at the University of Illinois College of Law to rally against Dean Vikram Amar’s decision to invite Deputy Solicitor General Malcolm Stewart to speak to students and faculty.</p>

Professor Francis Boyle, senior law professor at the College of Law, said, “This is the first time a high level henchman in the Trump administration has come to this campus and it’s inexcusable.”</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; font-family: "Chronicle Deck A", "Chronicle Deck B" !important; font-size: 1.4em; line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(66, 66, 66) !important;" class="">
Boyle said they are against the College of Law giving Stewart attention to come to the University and to try to spread the Trump propaganda party line through campus.</p>

Madge O’Brien, local protester, said she doesn’t support the Trump administration’s policy on immigration and war, along with many other policies that it’s currently advocating.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; font-family: "Chronicle Deck A", "Chronicle Deck B" !important; font-size: 1.4em; line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(66, 66, 66) !important;" class="">
“I wish they would remember the statue of liberty and the message that it brings, which is, ‘Give me your tired, your poor, your restless, your refuge yearning to be free,’ and which has welcomed so many of our ancestors for the last 400 years,” O’Brien said.</p>

As Boyle was the only faculty member from the College of Law present at the rally, he spoke out against his fellow faculty members, calling some “bigots and racists against Muslims.”</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; font-family: "Chronicle Deck A", "Chronicle Deck B" !important; font-size: 1.4em; line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(66, 66, 66) !important;" class="">
“This henchman has been working for the Trump department of injustice for the last year and helping them inflict every hideous atrocity you can possibly imagine on everyone in our country, including Latinos, undocumented people, gays, transgenders and Muslims,”
Boyle said.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; font-family: "Chronicle Deck A", "Chronicle Deck B" !important; font-size: 1.4em; line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(66, 66, 66) !important;" class="">
He focused on the issue prominent at this University: Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals.</p>

Boyle said there are “800,000 DACA kids … at risk as we speak, at risk of deportation.”</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; font-family: "Chronicle Deck A", "Chronicle Deck B" !important; font-size: 1.4em; line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(66, 66, 66) !important;" class="">
He said this case is crucial as it makes its way up to the U.S. Supreme Court by Stewart.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; font-family: "Chronicle Deck A", "Chronicle Deck B" !important; font-size: 1.4em; line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(66, 66, 66) !important;" class="">
“For me, I’m the child of an immigrant, of course that’s ridiculous that they would bring a speaker that supports some of (Trump’s) very unpopular policies like the ban and deportations,” said Andrea Herrera, University alumna.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; font-family: "Chronicle Deck A", "Chronicle Deck B" !important; font-size: 1.4em; line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(66, 66, 66) !important;" class="">
With Ben Mueller, member of the C-U Immigration Forum, leading the protesters, they chanted: “No hate. No fear. Immigrants are welcome here.”</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; font-family: "Chronicle Deck A", "Chronicle Deck B" !important; font-size: 1.4em; line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(66, 66, 66) !important;" class="">
Mueller said to the crowd that immigrants make our community a better place to live, and he encouraged the chancellor of the University to send a similar message to its students after the College of Law hosts Stewart.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; font-family: "Chronicle Deck A", "Chronicle Deck B" !important; font-size: 1.4em; line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(66, 66, 66) !important;" class="">
Boyle explained how, like DACA, the transgender policies and others Trump has tried to pass will occur more easily working under the deputy solicitor general.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; font-family: "Chronicle Deck A", "Chronicle Deck B" !important; font-size: 1.4em; line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(66, 66, 66) !important;" class="">
“(LGBTQ people are) humans just like the rest of us,” Boyle said. “They’re entitled to the same rights all the rest of us have, certainly that’s how I teach my law students to protect.”</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; font-family: "Chronicle Deck A", "Chronicle Deck B" !important; font-size: 1.4em; line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(66, 66, 66) !important;" class="">
Boyle said their fear is the Department of Justice, particularly Stewart, taking orders from Trump without any effort to fight injustice.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; font-family: "Chronicle Deck A", "Chronicle Deck B" !important; font-size: 1.4em; line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(66, 66, 66) !important;" class="">
“When Trump says, ‘Jump,’ this henchman says, ‘How high?’” Boyle said.</p>
