In an effort to carry out President Donald TrumprCOs goal of mass
deportations of undocumented immigrants, the federal government is
creating a network of immigrant detention centers across the country in
a plan outlined by documents released by New HampshirerCOs governor last week.

On Thursday, Gov. Kelly Ayotte released two documents she said she
received from the Department of Homeland Security rCo which houses Immigrations and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection,
the agencies conducting the deportations rCo that lay out the blueprint
for rCLthe Detention Reengineering Initiative.rCY

The plan calls for spending $38.2 billion allocated by Congress in this
past summerrCOs One Big Beautiful Bill Act to acquire and retrofit
warehouses or other sites across the country into eight rCLlarge scale detention centersrCY and 16 rCLprocessing sites.rCY ThatrCOs in addition to 10 existing rCLturnkeyrCY facilities ICE already operates. In total, ICE is attempting to create 92,600 beds across all the facilities. The
documents specify that this isnrCOt a temporary measure and that the sites will rCLserve as ICErCOs long-term detention solution.rCY

The regional processing sites will house an average daily population of
1,000 to 1,500 detained immigrants for an average of three to seven
days, while the large-scale detention centers will be capable of holding
7,000 to 10,000 immigrants for average stays of less than 60 days. The
idea is that immigrants detained by ICE will be processed at one of the regional sites before being transferred to a large-scale detention
center to await deportation. The federal government is seeking
contractors to create and operate these facilities.

Detention facilities where ICE and CBP are already operating have been
plagued by allegations of inhumane treatment.

Let's hope the processing sites don't have chim chimineys.
