Chicago’s Democratic mayor is moving to keep protesters miles away from the Democratic National Convention in the city in August, blocking pro-Palestinian protesters’ requests for permits to help insulate President Biden.
A lawyer representing one of the planned protests calls the city’s actions a heavy-handed, unconstitutional restriction of free speech.
College campuses across the U.S. have erupted into chaotic protests over the Israel-Hamas war, and other demonstrators have interrupted Mr. Biden’s speeches, taking over his events and drowning out his remarks with chants of “Genocide Joe.”
