ICE Abandons Plans for Detroit Detention Center
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has abandoned plans to convert a suburban Detroit warehouse into a 500-bed immigration detention center. The facility will be sold instead, according to Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel.
This move comes in response to a lawsuit filed against the plans to create the detention center.
What This Means for Immigrants
The cancellation of plans for the Detroit detention center may be a positive step for immigrants, as it reduces the risk of detention and deportation.
