She also supports legislation to require DHS and ICE officers to clearly identify themselves during enforcement actions, legislation that would reinstate protections that bar ICE from conducting immigration enforcement in sensitive locations, including churches, schools, hospitals, and non-immigration courts, and has demanded accountability from DHS.

Pettersen reiterates support for reinstating sensitive-location protections that restrict ICE enforcement actions.

Pettersen's official House site lists a June 2 press release titled "Reps. Pettersen, Neguse Lead Colorado House Democrats in Introducing Immigration and Customs Enforcement Reforms," showing she co-led ICE reform legislation.

Official House announcement shows Pettersen actively backed ICE reform legislation. That is concrete support for the promised policy, but it is not evidence that sensitive-location protections have been enacted.

Pettersen's official House office said she and Rep. Joe Neguse led Colorado House Democrats in introducing three DHS/ICE reform bills, including the Keeping Immigrants and Destinations Safe (KIDS) Act. Pettersen said the bills would increase transparency, strengthen accountability, protect due process, and begin restoring trust.

Official House evidence shows Pettersen took concrete legislative action in the 119th Congress by co-leading ICE reform bills, including the KIDS Act. This supports partial fulfillment and an effort badge, but does not show enactment.

The official release says the KIDS Act would prohibit DHS from performing immigration enforcement actions in and around sensitive locations without a court-issued criminal warrant, and would ban immigration arrests at schools, hospitals, places of worship, courthouses, and other sensitive locations unless officers have such a warrant.

The bill Pettersen co-led directly matches the promise's sensitive-location protections for schools, hospitals, churches/places of worship, and courts. The release describes proposed legislation, not enacted law, so it supports partial fulfillment.

The Guardian reported that the Trump administration overturned policies restricting ICE and CBP enforcement in sensitive areas, allowing immigration authorities to arrest migrants at schools, churches, and hospitals.

This reporting supplies context that the sensitive-location protections had been rescinded before Pettersen's 2026 legislation. It helps explain why her bill was a reinstatement effort, but it is not evidence of enactment.
