Tell Congress: Act Now to Protect Sensitive Locations
The Protecting Sensitive Locations Act (H.R.1061/S.455), legislation coming out of the Senate and the House, aims to strengthen restrictions on immigration enforcement at designated sensitive locations—such as houses of worship, schools, and medical facilities. If passed into law, the Protecting Sensitive Locations Act will provide our communities with critical safeguards that they have been without since the Trump administration gutted longstanding guidance for immigration enforcement agents in January 2025.
Passage of the Protecting Sensitive Locations Act is essential to safeguarding the freedoms and dignity we all deserve in our country--the right to health care, the freedom to worship, and humane treatment by our government officials.

Senate and House lawmakers have a bill that:
- Designates places of worship, schools, hospitals, courthouses, and other vital community spaces as sensitive locations.
- Reinstates clear guidance for agents, prohibiting enforcement within 1,000 feet of designated locations and allowing exceptions only in exigent circumstances, making such actions the rare exception rather than the new normal.
- Mandates reporting to Congress whenever enforcement occurs at these locations, ensuring greater accountability and transparency.
This common-sense approach could help ease pervasive fear that discourages people from practicing their faith, attending school, and accessing care and support.
