Six people arrested while protesting outside the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Broadview processing facility were in federal court this week.

Plus, what’s next for the hotly debated affordable healthcare subsidies now that the government shutdown is over; why West Garfield Park neighbors are demanding more investment; and where can we find toy, food, and clothes drives this weekend?
