3. "Lawsuits against ICE's unlawful activities need to happen more often"

They ARE happening by the thoussands now. They just don't get reported (or at least don't get found and reported on DU).

Early on when the appellate courts indicated that District Courts shouldn't be doing "nationwide injunctions/restraining orders" (like the 5th Circuit was wont to do before this administration came in to "own the libs" ), they left the door open for "class action" cases, and now many of these violations of immigrants rights are being done as a "class action" that can cover thousands within a certain jurisdiction (or whatever is defined for the class).
