Romulus, Michigan, and state sue to block proposed ICE detention facility in warehouse

The city of Romulus, Michigan, and the state have filed a lawsuit to block the U.S. Department of Homeland Security from converting a warehouse into an immigration detention facility, citing lack of communication, public safety concerns, and zoning violations. Residents and officials are alarmed by the proximity to neighborhoods and schools, while critics highlight issues with the site’s flood risk, limited bathrooms, and ICE’s record of poor detention conditions.
