The CEO of the Illinois Press Association, who had joined a lawsuit against the Trump administration for actions toward journalists outside a Chicago-area Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility, resigned this week following a dispute with the association's board over the litigation. Don Craven, who had led the Illinois Press Association since 2021, added the organization to the lawsuit Sunday alongside other Illinois news outlets and advocacy groups.
