The Trump administration is looking to expand immigrant detention in California, the largest sanctuary state. Recently, a court allowed the Adelanto ICE processing center to resume operations after a pandemic-induced reduction in detainee numbers. This ruling was criticized by Congress members due to the facility's reported neglect and abuse of detainees. The ACLU has noted there are no indications the operator, Geo Group, can improve conditions. Currently, ICE detains over 39,000 individuals nationwide, with California's sanctuary laws complicating federal deportation efforts.
California, the largest sanctuary state, is now facing increased scrutiny as courts permit the resumption of immigration detention amid ongoing concerns about facility conditions.
The Adelanto ICE processing center, previously criticized for its treatment of detainees, has resumed operations despite a history of neglect and abuse as documented by various reports.
