Colorado Opens Online Portal to Report Misconduct by Federal Agents

The attorney general says the portal will help document patterns for accountability.

Overview

  • The Colorado Department of Law launched an online form for residents to report alleged unlawful actions by ICE, Border Patrol and other federal officers.
  • The attorney general’s office will review each submission but warns that filing a complaint does not guarantee a state investigation.
  • The form collects basic details, uploads of images, and whether other law enforcement was present, with reports potentially shared with Colorado’s congressional delegation and local district attorneys.
  • Attorney General Phil Weiser described the tool as a public‑safety measure to track patterns and ensure accountability, saying no one is above the rule of law.
  • The rollout follows high‑profile federal operations, including recent Minneapolis shootings involving federal officers, as Denver officials consider limits on officers covering their faces during arrests.
