Plans For New ICE Jail In NJ Have Been Scrapped, Sherrill Says

Plans to turn a massive Roxbury warehouse into an ICE detention facility for 1,000 to 1,500 immigrants appear to be dead, according to Governor Mikie Sherrill and Attorney General Jennifer Davenport. The state called it “a big win for public safety” and cited concerns about water, sewage, and environmental impacts that it had raised throughout months of legal wrangling with the federal government.
