ICE-Free Movement: Cities, Universities, Now HALLOWEEN!

WASHINGTON - EntSun -- The growing movement to limit the ability of immigration enforcement agents [ICE] to apprehend people has spread . . to Halloween, with activists operating programs to try to keep toddlers and other young children who are trick-or-treating out of the hands of ICE, notes public interest law professor John Banzhaf. . .

In addition to organizing indoor trick-or-treat events, candy drives and candy dropoffs to protect vulnerable families (https://blockclubchicago.org/2025/10/29/how-chi...), others are urging concerned home owners to join the growing ICE-Free movement.

Under the "Safe Havens" program, private homeowners are urged to post an "ICE FREE HOME" sign on their porches where "trick or treaters can go in case of ICE activity. Safe Havens, our private properties where ice will be denied consent to enter" (https://x.com/NextNewsNetwork/status/1983766832...)

.Indeed, dozens of universities have reportedly already become a "sanctuary campus," but activist students at George Washington University [GWU] are demanding that campuses go far beyond "sanctuary campuses" to becoming completely ICE-free campuses.

More specifically they demand that GWU "Ban ICE, MPD, and all other external immigration and law enforcement from our campus and refuse these agencies access to campus without a judicial warrant," reports GWU law professor Banzhaf.

To explain how this can be done easily and legally, UNIVERSITY WORLD NEWS has published a how-to guide written by a noted law professor which suggests administrators are likely to be forced to take a total ban of ICE agents:  ICE-Free Campuses: Will Universities Take the next Step? (https://www.universityworldnews.com/post.php?story=20251029081248878)

In it he explains that universities, have a legal right to bar from their property any person or class of persons they wish, providing only that the prohibition is not based upon a protected category such as race.  Many, for example, bar persons smoking or carrying guns or drugs anywhere on the campus, both indoors and outdoors.

Simply posting prominent signs reading "NO ICE" at entrances to the campus, perhaps next to the existing "NO SMOKING" signs, would tend to keep them from snatching up students anywhere on the campus, including going to and from classes, dormitories, etc.  As the article explains:

"It appears that ICE agents, if not armed with a warrant signed by a judge, have generally respected restrictions on their movements imposed by universities and have not tried to force their way into dormitories, classrooms and other non-public areas on campus.

Therefore, they may well abide by other restrictions universities may impose, including an entire ICE-free campus.  If not, any arrests or other detentions which may occur could be challenged in court since they were accomplished only through illegal trespass by ICE."
