ICE Staging in Milwaukee Parks | Milwaukee News

Milwaukee County is preparing legal action against ICE after federal agents used county parks—including the iconic Mitchell Park Domes—as unauthorized staging areas, violating local ordinances that fine law enforcement for such use without permits. County Executive David Crowley condemned the raids, calling them chaotic and intimidating, and ordered legal teams to pursue every avenue to hold ICE accountable. With 39 arrests reported in Wisconsin over the weekend—many in Milwaukee—advocacy groups confirm at least 26–28 arrests since last week. Officials are now urging residents to document ICE activity and provide multilingual resources on community rights, while city leaders also criticized ICE for using Milwaukee Police District 2’s parking lot without permission, echoing broader calls to restrict federal operations on municipal property.
