ICE is moving forward with plans to use large warehouse-style detention centers despite lawsuits and federal investigations.

•⁠ ⁠New contracts are expected to be awarded for facilities in San Antonio and near El Paso, Texas, while ICE is also exploring a warehouse site near Alligator Alcatraz in Florida.

•⁠ ⁠The Trump administration’s plan could hold thousands of undocumented immigrants in large-scale hubs converted from warehouses and distribution centers.

•⁠ ⁠Local officials and activists in several states have pushed back against the projects, citing environmental concerns, community impact, and a lack of transparency from DHS.
