The Trump administration is expanding the detention of human beings at a scale that’s hard to comprehend. They are buying up warehouses, reopening shuttered facilities, and funneling billions of dollars into a mass detention infrastructure. Normalizing this scale of detention is a deliberate strategy straight from the authoritarian playbook. Warehouse facilities are built for storing products, not people. They expose those detained to unsafe, inhumane conditions, harm the communities where they’re sited, and lock states and localities into long-term detention infrastructure with no community input. For a view of the current situation, go to Project Salt Box’s ICE Warehouse Tracker:
Demand an end to this expansion and the closure of every detention site.
Join us Saturday at the Marquette Post Office as part of a nationwide day of action to oppose the Trump administration’s expansion of ICE warehouse detention and its attack on the due process rights of immigrants and all Americans.
The Department of Homeland Security is moving to lock thousands of people in massive detention warehouses — disappearing them from their families, their lawyers, and their communities. We’re taking to the streets to make clear that stands for dignity, justice, and the rule of law. On Saturday, we’ll gather to:
- Show visible, public opposition to ICE detention expansion and the criminalization of immigration
- Stand in solidarity with detained immigrants and the communities fighting to protect them
- Demand that our elected officials defend due process for everyone
Bring a sign. Bring your neighbors. Bring your voice.
Indivisible’s position is clear: Cancel the warehouse detention plan and stop every conversion immediately. Reject all public funding, permits, and local resources that enable ICE to expand detention. Require full transparency and real community consent before any federal detention action moves forward. Decisions about detention cannot be made behind closed doors.
Join our allies, The Citizens for Peace and Justice, at their weekly Saturday morning vigil and help bring our community’s attention to this issue!
