Jul 10: There was a filing of paperwork in a federal court in NJ, where DHS informed the court that it was still considering moving forward with the ICE warehouse in Roxbury.

INFORMATION ON 287(g) AGREEMENTS WILL BE ON THE WEBSITE SOON!!
Status of 3 Remaining ICE Warehouses:
Hagerstown, MD: Thousands have supplied comments to the federal government for its planned environmental assessment of the ICE warehouse in Williamsport. As of July 1, the Attorney General of Maryland urged ICE to pause plans for the conversion citing “ongoing and unresolved concerns.” The AG further argued for a full environmental impact statement rather than the limited assessment ICE is conducting.
San Antonio, TX: As of July 2, the San Antonio Current reported that ICE now plans to open the facility there in mid-2027 according to a letter sent to the Mayor in late June.
Surprise, AZ: Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes announced the warehouse was moving forward but would be delayed by the need for an environmental review. The agreement with ICE is seen as a major win and Mayes’ office predicted a minimum 9-month delay.
Headlines:
Jun 26: While testifying before a House Appropriations Committee homeland security subcommittee hearing, DHS Sec Mullin was asked about the use of WEXMAC for detention services. Mullin responded by saying that ICE will no longer use the Navy contract vehicle in this way. (Keep in mind, NoCCUS is seeing WEXMAC used for surge operations.)
Jun 27: Japanese internment camp survivors and their families, along with other activists marched from Crystal City, TX (a former Japanese WW II detention site) to Dilley demanding its closure. Speeches were given and paper cranes were placed on the fence at the family detention facility.
Jun 30: The State of AZ and DHS asked a federal judge to sign an order pausing litigation at the Surprise ICE warehouse. A hearing has not been scheduled.
Jun 30: US District Judge Randolph Moss ruled that “8647” and “Trump raped little girls” signs are protected speech under the First Amendment in a case involving protestors on the National Mall.
Jul 1: On this date, the arraignment of 14 Minnesota activists charged with conspiracy by the feds during Operation Metro Surge occurred. 14 of the 15 pleaded not guilty. Charges range from conspiracy to impede federal officers to assault, destruction of property, and interstate stalking. The 15th defendant is jailed pending arraignment. Demonstrations in support of the defendants took place outside the courthouse.
Jul 1: Project Salt Box highlighted a $240K sole source contract for detention expansion tied to Florence AZ, Batavia NY, and Miami (Krome North) FL. The contract was awarded Jun 2 to First Title Insurance Co. for title abstract, escrow, and settlement services for the three sites. Existing detention centers in the named cities will be expanded to allow for additional administrative, medical, training, and detention efforts. NoCCUS.org has reached out to community organizers in each of the locations.
Jul 1: The NY Times reported a surge in immigrant arrests across the country. Arresting 10K in five days, ICE has a new standard of arresting 2K every day. With the Supreme Court expanding Presidential power for mass deportation under the guise of immigration policy, the court has curtailed Trump’s efforts regarding ending birthright citizenship. In this environment, the administration is stepping up with surge activities while keeping to the quieter tone called for by Mullin.
Jul 1: Protestors held an anti-287(g) protest at the Oklahoma Highway Patrol HQ in Oklahoma City.
Jul 2: NoCCUS.org provided No Camps CA with a training video on USAspending data and ICE reports.

Jul 6: ICE bought California City Detention Facility and Otay Mesa Detention Facility both in California from CoreCivic. Operational control will remain with CoreCivic and the sale allows ICE to sidestep local oversight and some lawsuits tied to alleged abuse, including labor violations. Both facilities that ICE purchased were on the target list of 8 sites outlined by Project Salt Box representing sites the government wants to flip from private to ICE ownership. The remaining sites to watch (all owned by GEO Group) are in Tacoma (WA), Bakersfield (CA), Jena (LA), Aurora (CO), Winnfield (LA), and Conroe (TX). Another two sites remain unknown at this time but in ICE has said it wants to buy ten contractor facilities in total.
Jul 7: No Camps CA coordinated car caravans from all over the state to attend the Cal City Council meeting concerning a public permit appeal over the site plan for the California City Correctional Facility.
Jul 7: Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was shot and killed by ICE in Houston.
Jul 7: A rally attended by more than 400 was held in Newburgh, NY against the proposed ICE facility there that, in all likelihood, will have detention facilities.

Jun 17: A group of activists in Surprise AZ who are frustrated by their city council’s refusal to take a stand against the planned ICE warehouse have decided to try to disincorporate the city. If the plan works, Surprise will come under the jurisdiction of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors.
Jun 20: The Intercept reported that John Mark Rozendaal, the cellist who was arrested at the Delaney Hall in May, was asked by the FBI to inform on other protestors.
Jun 22: The Justice Department is offering $1B in public safety grants to cities and police departments willing to work with federal immigration officers. This is part of the shift to a quieter enforcement strategy following the unpopular surges in Chicago and Minneapolis. Approximately $700M comes from the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) in DOJ. COPS is one of the largest funding sources for local police departments and the Justice Department will now require complying with ICE as a prerequisite to funding. The remaining $300M will be awarded to two to four midsized cities under a program called the Model Cities Initiative. DOJ is sidestepping the usual review process for this grant instead opting to use agency leadership to choose winners based on “true partnership.”
Jun 22: Despite the NoCCUS campaign to stop the coworking spaces contract by ICE, the contract was awarded. Published on SAM.gov on Jun 22, a small business, minority owned company called AG Transfer Agency LLC (Houston) was selected for the $5.7M contract. The company’s only previously known federal contract was a dryer replacement contract ($3.3M) for the Bureau of Prisons. It is unknown how this small company has cobbled together subcontractors to provide the breath of coverage needed for the coworking spaces requirements specified by the government. Contract start is July 1. All ICE personnel could be filling those offices throughout the country on that date.
Jun 23: The US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit, in a divided three-judge ruling threw out a lower court ruling blocking the Trump administration’s use of expedited removal for deportation. The new ruling is a major victory for the mass deportation agenda and will allow the resumption of speedy deportations (without the ability to appear before a judge) of undocumented migrants throughout the US, not just near the border. This change will likely affect hundreds of thousands and lead to civil rights abuse.
Jun 23: In an incident that occurred July 4th, 2025, The Prairieland 9 were given unusually long sentences in a victory for the Trump administration sending chills throughout the activism community.

Jun 24: The National Detainee Handbook and the Detention Officer Handbook have been added to the NoCCUS website (Reference page). This information was included in a DHS Request for Proposal (RFP) package.
Jun 25: In a 6 to 3 vote, the Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration has the power to end the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) program. Enacted in 1990, the law allowed vetted and eligible migrants to live and work legally in the US if they could not return home due to armed conflict, natural disasters, or other conditions. DHS has the authority to determine which countries qualify. This decision allows Trump to end TPS for Haitians and Syrians without the possibility of judicial review. Those migrants will potentially be made illegal, lose their jobs and face deportation with many forced to leave American-born children in the US. Only four countries have remaining TPS status (El Salvador, Lebanon, Sudan, Ukraine). All of them face renewal in the fall.
Jun 25: The state of California and Santa Clara County filed a motion for a preliminary injunction against the administration over the building of an ICE facility near Gilroy.
Jun 25: Final announcement of the shuttering of the notorious Florida detention center in the Everglades. The detainees at Alligator Alcatraz were moved the week prior to Gov. DeSantis’ announcement that the facility was closing. An attorney for Friends of the Everglades and the Center for Biological Diversity said the state and federal governments will still be held responsible for their actions despite the closure.
Jun 27: Lance Schroyer was named by Trump as the next ICE director succeeding David Venturella. According to Trump, Schroyer is a patriot, former Marine, and Oklahoma State Trooper. Sec Mullin has commented that Schroyer brings operational field experience and experience working under the 287g program. Schroyer needs Senate confirmation and the Senate hasn’t confirmed an ICE director in 11 years.
Jun 29: Activists in Walsenburg CO received notice of the Final Determination of Sufficiency in their ballot initiative which would prevent the reopening of a prison by the GEO Group under ICE if passed.
Jun 29: Gov. Mikie Sherill and Attorney General Davenport of New Jersey issued a statement saying that DHS has confirmed the Roxbury ICE facility will not move forward.
Jun 30: The Supreme Court voted 6-3 to strike down Trump’s executive order declaring children born to people who are in the US illegally or temporarily are not citizens. Writing for the majority, Chief Justice Roberts upheld the long-settled understanding of the 14th Amendment on birthright citizenship making a citizen anyone born in the country.
Jun 30: TheGSA signed a 15-year lease on a warehouse near Newburgh, NY for $35.5M to be used by ICE. The contract was awarded to Leverage Enterprises Inc. of Houston. The 60K+ sq. ft building will likely house detainees as the solicitation specifically mentions a sally port big enough for detainee buses and vans. Nearby Chester was the site of a proposed ICE warehouse that was contested by locals before DHS backed off.

It also claims that the government failed to conduct the necessary environmental reviews prior to purchasing the site.
Jun 11: Final Notice and Public Review of a Proposed Activity in a 100-Year Floodplain- Detention Facility Enhancements (Marana, AZ) on DHS.gov. ICE seeks a contract to operate, renovate, and enhance the existing facility at Marana under a contractor arrangement.

Jun 14: In a major immigration ruling, a federal judge in Rhode Island ordered the Trump administration to restart the processing of asylum and immigration applications. In a 135-page opinion, the judge argued that the halt on work permits and banning asylum seekers placed the lives of countless on hold solely by virtue of their country of birth.
Jun 14: Articles were released revealing how the $70B in DHS funding will be allocated through 2029. ICE will receive $38B, CBP $26B, and approximately $5B will go to DHS. This ICE budget will expand arrests, detention, deportation operations, and partnerships with state and local police. Of additional concern is the provision for $350M related to enforcement in cities and states that do not comply with the administration’s mass deportation agenda (likely targeting sanctuary cities/communities). The law also omits any guardrails such as reporting requirements or congressional oversight of detention facilities.
Jun 15: Five Democratic US Representatives from Michigan sent a letter to DHS Secretary Mullin opposing the ICE warehouse facility in Romulus. The representatives included Rep Stevens, Rep Dingell, Rep Scholten, Rep McDonald Rivet, and Rep Thanedar.
Jun 16: In Minneapolis, fifteen defendants were charged with conspiracy to impede federal agents. Joint Task Force Vanguard brought a federal indictment against the defendants charging stalking, assault, and threatening officers in a case outlined from Jan 11 to May 4, 2026, by DOJ. The government alleges the individuals are part of two “antifa” groups. There were protests across the city against the arrests and activists are closely watching the case.
Jun 17: US Representative Veronica Escobar was quoted in the El Paso Times as saying that ICE is no longer considering the warehouses in Socorro for detention purposes. More specifically, ICE may use the facilities for offices, conferences, training, and limited detention.
Jun 17: The Supreme Court is being asked to weigh in on an important immigration detention case regarding attorney fees. Montoya v. Liggins could change the attorneys’ willingness to pursue habeus cases. Over 52,000 petitions for writs of habeus corpus have been filed for detained migrants. The issue involved concerns whether detention can be regarded as a civil action and therefore allow attorney fee coverage under the Equal Access to Justice Act or not. If the Supreme Court grants the request to hear the case, arguments would likely begin in October.
Jun 18: MAJOR NEWS FOR SOME ICE WAREHOUSES The NY Times broke the story about the administration deciding not to use 7 of the 11 purchased ICE warehouses for detention. Warehouses in Romulus, MI.; Social Circle and Flowery Branch, GA.; Hamburg and Tremont, PA.; Salt Lake City; and Roxbury, N.J. will be sold off or given to other branches of the government. The remaining sites where DHS continues to focus their efforts are San Antonio and Socorro, TX; Surprise, AZ.; and Hagerstown, MD. On June 17th, the El Paso Times reported that the three ICE warehouses there were no longer going to be used for mass detention according to US Rep. Veronica Escobar. It is important for everyone to remain vigilant during this time of transition.

May 30- Jun 1: Governor Mikie Sherill called out the State Police who responded in full riot gear, on horseback, and behind expanding metal barricades at Delaney Hall. There were significantly different reports from conventional media and activists concerning what happened overnight.

May 19: Friends of the Everglades released a statement saying that the state of Florida has received a payment of $58.2M from the feds in the first ever payment for Alligator Alcatraz. Groups are expected to argue that this payment meets the definition of a “major federal action” and will trigger an environmental statute. Gov. DeSantis has said that the closure of the facility is under discussion.
May 20: ProjectSalt Box identified a procurement notice in a DHS database listing a potential contract to maintain and do caretaker activities potentially at ICE warehouses with a contract value between $10-20M. These documents were apparently being worked while legal cases were progressing through the courts on several warehouses. As of May 26th, the solicitation has not been listed on SAM.gov. It is possible that the contract was released through another contract vehicle using pre-approved vendors.
May 20: A status hearing on May 27th has been announced for Romulus, MI signaling a potential agreement over a NEPA review. The ICE warehouse in Michigan where DHS wants to house 500 detainees is on a floodplain with only one sewer line. Maryland and New Jersey have reached agreements with DHS to study water and sewer.
May 21: Social Circle issued a press release entitled: Not in Our Town or Anywhere: Social Circle Sues to Keep ICE Warehouses Out of Community. The release was signed by ten organizations and contained statements by advocates.
May 21: Project Salt Box reported that GardaWorld Federal Services was actively recruiting through job postings in Surprise, AZ. They are looking for medical personnel, security guards, operational support, and transportation staff.

Also of concern is that all the job posting contain a warning that employees may be exposed to extreme temperatures, airborne particles, chemicals, and noise.
May 22: The Trump administration announced a major change in immigration practice that will likely affect many. Anyone with a temporary visa who wants to change their immigration status to obtain a green card will now be required to return to their home country for consular processing. A former USCIS official said that each year about 1M people apply for green cards and about half of them change their status while in the US. Keeping in mind that over 100 countries have now been banned entry, it’s easy to see that consular processing is a dead end for many.
May 25: The Delaney Hall detention center became a site of protest over Memorial Day weekend. Detainees have been holding a hunger strike over medical neglect and living conditions. On Memorial Day, Gov. Mikie Sherill was denied access to the facility and US Senator Andy Kim was caught in a volley of pepper spray deployed by ICE as ICE apparently attempted to move protestors back during an escalating scene outside Delaney Hall.
May 26: NoCCUS.org held a training on ICE contracts. The training covered the basics of using http://www.usaspending.gov and went on to explain the creation of the NoCCUS database from which state reports are generated. Uses of the information was explored as well as avenues for further research.

May 14: The Washington Post reported that ICE is attempting to move forward with detention warehouses despite legal setbacks. Anonymous sources have revealed that ICE officials are getting ready to award contracts on the El Paso and San Antonio sites. ICE is also exploring what work can be done on the Hagerstown warehouse without violating the standing injunction.
May 14: Effective immediately, US Border Patrol Chief Michael Banks resigned. His departure marks the third high-profile turnover within DHS in the last two months.

May 6: Project Salt Box reported on three important parts of the detention holding system. First, warehouses are not moving forward as the fight now is in the courts. With the administration still wanting to achieve mass deportation numbers, bed space appears now to be shifting to focusing on buying 10 privately owned contractor facilities (a Salt Box anonymous source lists 8 locations in the article) and an increasing reliance on 287 agreements which are expanding at astonishing rates. Another ICE insider has said that warehouses have not been abandoned but officials are assessing how to proceed. (“As Trump Officials Vow Deportation Surge, ICE Searches for Detention Space”)
May 6: The San Elizario City Council passed two resolutions restricting DHS in moving forward with the ICE warehouse in Socorro.

Apr 27: In a NY Times article, a senior official is reported to have said that DHS Secretary Mullin has expressed skepticism about purchasing more warehouses.
Apr 28: The Guardian reported that Mullin’s call for quieter immigration enforcement is alarming the MAGA base. The new policy which favors ICE not leading in the evening news stories, has groups like the Mass Deportation Coalition (led by the Heritage Foundation) wondering if Trump is betraying his campaign promise of mass deportation.
Apr 28: The record 75-day government shutdown ended when the House approved a Senate-passed bill funding much of DHS. Trump signed the bill the same day funding FEMA, TSA, the Coast Guard, and the Secret Service through the end of September. The budget resolution directs committees in Congress to draft legislation and authorize $70B for ICE and BP for the next three years. Under the reconciliation process, if nearly all Republicans vote for this, Democrats won’t be able to stop it.
Apr 29: Walsenburg, Colorado activists have begun gathering signatures for a ballot initiative to block the reactivation of a former prison by CoreCivic for ICE. An incident at a local Safeway has resulted in charges against a perpetrator accosting a signature gatherer.

Wish you were here!”

Apr 21: SAM.gov listings indicate that DHS is exploring an alternative contracting vehicle other than WEXMAC. The agency is considering establishing a portfolio of single-award construct contracts (SACC) involving several companies that would provide for rapidly designing, building, renovating, and demolishing ICE facilities. This structure would be faster than WEXMAC since a small set of preapproved companies would bypass individual task order competition. It also brings the contracting system under DHS and removes the political questions swirling around the use of WEXMAC. More information will be forthcoming once the RFP (Request for Proposal) is released.
Apr 22: Indivisible announced that six billboards will be placed around the country highlighting ICE camps. The announced locations include Surprise, AZ; San Antonio, TX; Hagerstown, MD; Natchez, MS; Orlando, FL; and Miami, FL. We’re using billboards to expose ICE’s detention camp plans
Apr 22: Activists in Walsenburg, CO report that their ballot initiative wording was approved and they are moving forward with the signatures phase. ICE has eyed a defunct prison in Walsenburg to reopen under CoreCivic as a detention center. This ballot measure, if passed, would prohibit that.
Apr 22: A hunger strike at a GEO facility in Baldwin, MI was reported. Baldwin is currently fighting the opening of an ICE warehouse.
Apr 22: In Surprise AZ, the mayor continues to be problematic. Residents presented four demands ahead of a city council meeting.

Everything remained peaceful.
Apr 22: In the ongoing case over the Romulus, MI warehouse, federal officials submitted a filing arguing that the selection of the sites fall within its “broad, discretionary authority” and should not be subject to court review.

Apr 23: Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib (MI) introduced the Ban Warehouse Detention Act prohibiting DHS and ICE from establishing, converting, or renovating any warehouse or similar building including modular/tent structures. NoCCUS.org was one of eighty endorsing organizations.
Apr 23: In NJ, DHS was in court where they argued that buying and retrofitting an existing warehouse does not require an environmental review. They asserted that modifications don’t trigger the need for review and only when a facility opens should questions of water, sewer, and roads be addressed. Courts must decide if a warehouse is distinct from the detention center it will become. This currently affects three warehouse cases (NJ, MD, MI). Should the courts grant that they are distinct entities, then the government would be able to move forward with little environmental review. Michigan’s reply to the filing was expected by Apil 28th.
Apr 24: The Attorney General of AZ announced a lawsuit against DHS alleging the government did not conduct or publicize required environmental reviews which violates the Immigration and Nationality Act. AZ joins MI, NJ, and MD in taking DHS to court over environmental reviews.

Warehouse sites that participated include Romulus, MI, El Paso, TX, Salt Lake City, UT, Hagerstown, MD, and Shakopee, MN. Many other locations joined in solidarity including NoCCUS members in North Carolina, Colorado, and New York.

Mar 30: Senators Elizabeth Warren and Jeanne Shaheen sent a letter to Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth questioning the appropriateness of the use of WEXMAC as a contract vehicle for ICE warehouses.

Mar 24: The state of Michigan sued to block the conversion of the Romulus warehouse citing DHS’s failure to complete the required environmental reviews and failed to notify the state or local officials about ICE’s intentions regarding the warehouse until the sale was complete.

Mar 25: The Salt Lake City Council passed an ordinance amendment capping new, non-residential development projects to 200,000 gallons of water a day for the next 180 days. A longer-term ordinance may be necessary depending on the city’s situation. With low snowpack and high temperatures, the city is already looking to conserve water. A high-occupancy ICE warehouse facility would likely use 1-2 million gallons of water a day and present serious water problems.
Mar 25: The Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma purchased the warehouse site in Durant, OK. Previously the City Council of Durant had voted unanimously to restrict property sales to ICE in an ordinance in January.

In addition, ICE has promised the local community 2000+ local jobs. These promises conflict with what ICE has already told the State of Pennsylvania regarding a water plan.
Mar 26: Earthjustice and the Center for Biological Diversity joined the State of Maryland in filing suit to halt the Williamsport warehouse site. The lawsuit alleges that the conversion of the warehouse without the required environmental reviews and public input violates several laws.

The memo also suggests that ICE plans to revise its warehouse proposals and include feedback from stakeholders.
