Brad Lander undergoes federal criminal trial for protest arrest at 26 Federal Plaza

Congressional candidate Brad Lander is undergoing a federal criminal trial for his arrest during a 2025 protest at 26 Federal Plaza against ICE. He was charged with obstructing the usual use of a federal facility after blocking a hallway during a demonstration, while other defendants accepted plea deals. Lander argues that ICE's enforcement actions, not his protest, constitute the real obstruction.
