Marimar Martinez, the Chicago woman shot five times by officers last October, is expected to testify.
On Monday, several videos were shown, including a chaotic confrontation in Evanston, as agents detained protesters.
Katie Abraham's mother also spoke out against "Operation Midway Blitz."
Abraham was killed by a drunk driver in Urbana, who was living in Illinois illegally.
The Department of Homeland Security used her story, with her father's permission, to launch "Operation Midway Blitz."
So far the commission has held three public hearings, conducting 16 independent investigations and dozens of interviews. They've also reviewed what they say are hundreds of hours of video evidence, including the body-worn camera shown Monday.
Border Patrol Cmdr. Gregory Bovino and former Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem were among the Trump administration officials invited to testify during the panel. They declined.
Final findings will go to the governor.
