Got something to say about the ICE facility in Williamsport?

Then leave your comment on the agency's comment section. By law, these comments have to be considered.

(Yes, we know about the problems the Trump Regime has with following the law.)

Comments are due July 1, so hop to it!

The court-ordered environmental review describes a facility for up to 1,500 people, nearly three times the number ICE gave the court through the spring. Public comment runs through July 1.

Want to know why people protest Republicans' plans to create a detention facility in Williamsport?

Look at how these places are run, for one thing. Here's how conditions at the facility in New Jersey are described:

"On May 22, some detainees began a hunger strike to protest conditions at the facility, reportedly including spoiled or rotten food and no access to basic hygiene products such as toilet paper, menstruation products, or toothpaste. On May 23, U.S. Senator Andy Kim and Representative Rob Menendez went inside the facility to speak with detainees. Senator Kim met with a pregnant woman who said she is not receiving full obstetrics and gynecological care, and with a woman who had a miscarriage but received no care and was left to manage the miscarriage on her own.

Detainees have also told relatives and advocacy groups that the water tasted metallic and undrinkable; that people were being denied medical care or necessary medications; and that diseases such as the flu or COVID-19 were spreading throughout the facility. In addition, in late May, the Department received a report about a detainee taken to University Hospital with tuberculosis, a highly infectious disease."

"The town of Social Circle’s complaint goes further than other recently filed lawsuits around the same issues, which assert that the US federal government has not carried out environmental impact assessments for proposed detention centers, as required by the National Environmental Policy Act (Nepa).

The town’s lawsuit goes on to allege that the homeland security department and ICE have also violated the federal Administrative Procedures Act (APA) – which “requires reasoned decision-making by federal agencies, including consideration of adversely affected interests and any reasonable alternatives”, according to the complaint."

Town of Social Circle’s complaint invokes ‘public nuisance’ law that scholars say could have impact for other localities
