FILE - This April 11, 2012, file photo, shows an anti-detention sign outside a home in Crete, Ill. Officials in Crete voted unanimously in 2012 to reject a plan to build an immigrant detention center in the village. A first-of-its kind law barring private detention facilities in Illinois signed into law in June 2019 by Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker, has been drawing praise from 2020 Democratic presidential candidates and immigrant rights advocates who hope the move leads the government to seek alternatives as President Donald Trump steps up enforcement and vows to deport millions living in the country illegally.
