State launches portal to report ‘Midway Blitz’ ICE abuses

Written By Deborah Cohen

The Illinois Accountability Commission, housed within the Illinois Department of Human Rights, was formed by executive order in October 2025 to create a public record of federal agents during “Operation Midway Blitz” and the Trump Administration’s military-style operations throughout the Chicago area.

What kind of information should be shared with IAC?

The IAC is collecting information about misconduct that falls within its mandate, meaning that the misconduct:

  • Was perpetrated by federal immigration law enforcement agents, such as agents who work for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or Customs and Border Protection (CBP); and

  • Occurred in Illinois during Operation Midway Blitz from September 2025 through the end of 2025.

  • Please focus on events that happened to you or that you witnessed first-hand.

Submit your report to the Commission.

Stay apprised of upcoming events or hearings sponsored by the Commission.
