         <description><![CDATA[<p>Crawley, like many at the Tuesday night<strong> </strong>gathering, doesn’t see the logic in his small town of 5,000 people being saddled with a massive facility holding up to 9,000 migrants at a time, as outlined in an internal ICE document.</p><p><br></p><p>Social Circle’s water and sewer systems are already near capacity. The town usually has only two or three police officers on duty. And residents have raised concerns that the warehouse most likely to be used for the project is a 20-minute walk from the town’s elementary school.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>“It’s dehumanizing,” said Tania Wolf, an advocate with the National Immigration Project who is based in New Orleans — about one hour south from the site of a planned warehouse in Hammond, Louisiana. “You’re treating people, for lack of a better term, like cattle.”</p><p><br></p><p>ICE plans to heavily modify the structures to include intake areas, housing units with showers and restrooms, a kitchen, dining areas, a medical unit, indoor and outdoor recreation areas, a law library, and administrative offices, according to the solicitation. Some of the facilities will include special housing designed for families in custody.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Immigration and Customs Enforcement plans to detain immigrants in a series of large warehouses around the U.S. — including one in Arizona. That’s according to a recent <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="Link" href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2025/12/24/ice-immigrants-detention-warehouses-deportation-trump/">report</a> from the Washington Post.</p><p><br></p><p>The Post says it reviewed a draft solicitation document that shows ICE is asking contractors to help outfit the US detention system to detain more than 80,000 immigrants at once.</p><p><br></p><p>The report identifies 23 warehouse sites across the country that would be renovated to serve as processing centers — where 500 to 1,500 people would be held — and detention sites — where as many as 10,000 could be held. That includes one detention site in Glendale, Arizona, though further details about the exact location there are not clear.</p>]]></description>
