Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers expressed concern over remarks made by President Trump's top border adviser, Tom Homan, suggesting he could be arrested for guidance issued to state employees on handling encounters with ICE agents. Evers emphasized his fearlessness and commitment to doing what is right, highlighting that the guidance was intended to provide clear instructions to ensure legal compliance while consulting with attorneys. Critics accused Evers of instructing non-cooperation with ICE, a claim he denied, accusing Republicans of spreading misinformation. Homan's comments followed the arrest of Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan, who allegedly assisted an individual in evading immigration authorities. The situation underscores tension between state guidance and federal immigration enforcement, with implications for sanctuary city policies and legal responsibilities.

Governor Tony Evers of Wisconsin faced comments from Tom Homan, Trump's top border adviser, suggesting potential arrest due to his guidance to state employees on dealing with ICE agents, which Evers described as 'chilling'.

Evers issued guidance advising state employees to seek legal counsel when confronted by ICE, emphasizing the importance of having attorneys present to ensure compliance with laws, similar to steps taken by other states.

Critics accused Evers of promoting non-cooperation with ICE, but he denied these allegations, asserting that the guidance was not an order to defy federal authorities but a measure for legal clarity and protection.

Homan's warning of potential legal action against those who impede federal immigration enforcement came after the arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan, who allegedly helped someone avoid ICE capture, highlighting the legal risks of such actions.

The controversy reflects broader national tensions regarding sanctuary policies and state versus federal roles in immigration enforcement, with Evers standing firm on the legality and intent of his guidance.
