ICE abandons Romulus immigration detention center plan after AG Dana Nessel lawsuit
Federal immigration officials have abandoned plans to convert a Romulus warehouse into an immigration detention center following a lawsuit filed by Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel and the city of Romulus. The lawsuit cited concerns about the site's proximity to schools, floodplain status, and inadequate infrastructure, leading to the decision to sell the property instead of proceeding with the facility.
