Our latest: Over the last year, thousands of immigrants from the Chicago area have been released from detention. On the surface, release can feel like a victory. But for many, it is only temporary. Freedom doesn’t guarantee a path to legal status. www.chicagotribune.com/2026/09/20/o...

We’re at the “shipping container courts” stage of ICE’s mass expansion of the enforcement system.
Each detention unit would sit on asphalt or concrete behind an office's existing security fence, with a counter for processing people and a separate holding area fitted with a toilet and sink for detainees according to the draft work statement.
The agency also wants a 300-square-foot unit for interviewing people in custody and a 60-square-foot "Virtual Immigration Court Unit" for hearings run by the Executive Office for Immigration Review, the Justice Department agency that operates the immigration courts.
Both must also be designed for their purpose before delivery.
