Briefly

Healey, Ayotte spar over proposed ICE facility in N.H.
"We certainly should not be allowing ICE to build new human warehouses when they can't be trusted to keep people safe and protect due process. I oppose this in the strongest possible terms, and I am demanding that Governor Ayotte do everything in her power to block a new ICE facility in Southern New Hampshire,"
"New England is in this position because Governor Healey and Massachusetts created a billion-dollar illegal immigrant crisis in our region. Get your own house in order, Maura. I will continue to advocate for the Town of Merrimack and for New Hampshire,"
"The ACLU of New Hampshire published documents that confirm the plans and refer to communications between ICE and the New Hampshire Division of Historical Resources."
ICE plans to convert a warehouse in Merrimack, New Hampshire, into a detention center holding several hundred people. Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey criticized the proposal, calling it a way to "supercharge their horrific deportation tactics," opposing new "human warehouses," and demanding that Governor Ayotte block the facility. New Hampshire Governor Kelly Ayotte blamed Healey for an immigration "crisis" in the region and pledged to advocate for Merrimack and New Hampshire. Local officials say they were kept uninformed and oppose the plans. The ACLU of New Hampshire published documents confirming ICE communications with the state's Division of Historical Resources. Ayotte demanded the resignation of the official who led the state agency.
