Prosecutors Warn DHS Immigration Arrests at Churches Endanger Public Safety

Original: Prosecutors Warn DHS Immigration Enforcement at Houses of Worship Threatens Public Safety

A group of prosecutors is warning the Department of Homeland Security that conducting immigration enforcement at houses of worship threatens public safety. They argue that fear of arrest in churches, synagogues, mosques and other sacred spaces will deter immigrants from reporting crimes, cooperating with investigations, or seeking protection, ultimately making communities less safe. The warning adds to ongoing legal and political disputes over the scope of federal immigration enforcement under sensitive-location policies.

Why now: Federal immigration enforcement is expanding into sensitive locations, drawing new criticism from law enforcement officials.
