Episode Details

Residents of rural El Paso communities are outraged over plans to convert warehouses into a massive immigration detention center, citing safety concerns and strain on resources. Local leaders and homeowners were caught off guard, as the federal government provided no advance notice. The project, part of a larger push to add over 80,000 detention beds nationwide, has sparked opposition from both residents and some supporters of stricter immigration policies. City councils and state representatives have passed resolutions to block the project, citing the warehouses unsuitability for housing people. Similar pushback is occurring across the country, as border communities fight to protect their infrastructure and way of life.
