Ep 165 | When ICE Enters the Hospital: The Fight for Sanctuary Doctoring with Dr. Amy Blair and Dr. Monica Maalouf

Wednesday, November 19, 2025 • Duration 40:08

As ICE raids escalate across Chicago, hospitals and clinics have become sites of risk and confrontation for immigrants seeking healthcare. What happens when Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents enter a place of healing? What are a doctor's rights - and a patient's - when the line between care and enforcement blurs? To learn more about this, I spoke with Dr. Amy Blair and Dr. Monica Maalouf, two physicians and patient advocates in the Chicagoland area.
