Who We Are
We are the ICE Accountability Project.
Our purpose is to document and provide transparency to the public and other interested parties of the numerous allegations of serious misconduct committed by federal immigration agents who have been rampaging through our communities since the start of the so-called "Operation Midway Blitz" in September 2025.
We aim to serve as a permanent, centralized repository to memorialize the information and evidence of the actions of the array of federal immigration agents operating in the towns and neighborhoods throughout Chicagoland since September 2025.
How It Works
We know it can be overwhelming to witness federal immigration activity.
Here's what to expect from the reporting process.
Submit details about an ICE encounter or activity that raised concern.
You can include location, timing, and any photos or video you have.
A team of reviewers assess submissions for accuracy, context, and relevance before anything is published.
Your identity always remains confidential.
Verified incidents are then published to create a public record of ICE activity in the Chicagoland region.
