Indiana AG Sues Indianapolis Public Schools For Blocking ICE, Extends Anti‑Sanctuary Crackdown

Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita filed suit against Indianapolis Public Schools, alleging IPS policies unlawfully hinder U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and violate Indiana’s anti‑sanctuary statute. The complaint centers on a January incident tied to a voluntary deportation where IPS sought a judicial order before releasing a student, after which the father missed his departure flight. The case expands Rokita’s coordinated campaign from sheriffs and nonprofits to a major school district and names the America First Policy Institute as special counsel. Rokita seeks court orders forcing IPS to align policies with state law.
