On October 12, 2025, a protest at an ICE facility in Illinois over religious access led to 15 arrests.
On October 12, 2025, nearly 1,000 religious leaders and supporters, including priests, nuns, and laypeople from the Coalition for Spiritual and Public Leadership, marched to the ICE facility in Broadview, Illinois, to deliver Holy Communion to detainees, asserting that "no human is illegal."
Despite prior notification, ICE denied access, and Illinois State Police blocked the group at the entrance without explanation.
Protesters held a communion service nearby and cited the 2008 Access to Religious Ministry Act, which guarantees spiritual access.
The demonstration occurred amid ongoing tensions following a September fence installation at the facility, despite a federal judge’s temporary restraining order requiring its removal.
Fifteen people were arrested during the event, which drew attention to immigration enforcement practices and the right to religious freedom.
