DEVELOPING: Newark Mayor Ras Baraka and New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill announced Tuesday that the city and state are escalating legal action to shut down Delaney Hall, an ICE detention center in Newark operated by private contractor GEO Group under a $1 billion federal contract. Newark originally sued GEO Group in state court in April 2025 over allegations the company failed to receive required state permits before reopening the facility.
Mayor Baraka and city leaders announced Tuesday they will expand that litigation to call for full closure if state health inspectors are not granted full access to the building. (Yahoo!) Protests and a reported hunger strike have been ongoing since May 22, following allegations that roughly 300 detainees are being poorly fed, denied adequate medical care, and held in substandard conditions. DHS responded Tuesday calling the attorney general's suit "frivolous," and has repeatedly denied the conditions allegations. The standoff sets up a direct legal clash between New Jersey state authority and the federal government over who governs a privately run immigration facility.
