A new ICE facility could speed up deportations for families and kids
The Trump administration plans to open a 528-bed ICE facility in Alexandria, Louisiana, near an airport to streamline deportations of migrant families and unaccompanied children. Advocates warn of potential prolonged detentions and oversight issues, while ICE claims the 'staging area' will hold individuals for only a few days. The facility will be operated by a nonprofit arm of private prison contractor LaSalle Corrections.
