Description
ICEs courthouse arrests spark controversy, leading to state-level restrictionsSince President Trumps inauguration, ICE has resumed arrests inside courthouses, causing uproar. In Connecticut, high-profile incidents and concerns about deterring justice-seekers have led to new state restrictions on civil arrests and mask-wearing by federal law enforcement. This trend follows a growing conflict between state and federal authorities, with states like Illinois and Rhode Island considering or implementing bans on civil immigration arrests in courthouses. The Department of Justice challenges these state laws and prosecutes judges for allegedly helping migrants avoid ICE agents, highlighting the tension between federal immigration enforcement and states efforts to ensure open access to their court systems.
