The Illinois TRUST Act and Way Forward Act bar state and local law enforcement from civil immigration enforcement, holding ICE detainers, or contracting for immigration detention.
The Illinois TRUST Act (5 ILCS 805) prohibits state and local law enforcement agencies from stopping, arresting, searching, or detaining any person solely based on immigration status, and from holding individuals on ICE detainer or administrative warrant requests. The Way Forward Act (Public Act 102-0234) amended the TRUST Act to prohibit Illinois jurisdictions from entering or renewing intergovernmental service agreements to detain individuals for federal civil immigration purposes. Section 805/15 requires agencies to ensure facilities are not used for immigration enforcement interviews or holds. The Attorney General enforces compliance and may seek injunctive relief.
Aggrieved individuals may bring civil actions for injunctive and declaratory relief plus reasonable attorney fees under Section 805/40, and the Attorney General may sue noncomplying agencies.
