Summary
ICE is pulling out of its plan to turn a Romulus, Michigan warehouse into an immigration detention center after facing strong legal and community opposition. The state’s Attorney General and local officials sued, citing safety concerns, environmental risks, and procedural flaws — especially since the site was near schools and in a floodplain. ICE ultimately decided to sell the property instead of converting it, but the Attorney General insists on a formal, written guarantee that the facility will never be used for detention again — a victory for local voices and legal accountability.
