The Trump administration is converting warehouses across the country into mass immigration detention facilities, part of a broader agenda to detain and disappear our neighbors on a massive scale.
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. We demand an end to this expansion and the closure of every detention site.
This fight is winnable. Communities across the country have already stopped more than a dozen proposed sites, in red states and blue. Property owners have walked away from deals under public pressure. City councils have passed moratoriums. Republican senators have come out against proposed facilities in their own states. We’ve even seen a federal judge halt construction at a site ICE had already purchased in Maryland. The mass deportation agenda is deeply unpopular, and organized communities are proving it can be stopped.
Contact your Federal Representatives - they need to know how deeply unpopular and inhumane these facilities are.
Contact your State Reps and Local Reps - ultimately these facilities are local and stress power, sewage and household water resources.
Core Demands
1 Cancel the warehouse detention plan and stop every conversion immediately.
2 Reject all public funding, permits, and local resources that enable detention expansion.
3 Require full transparency and real community consent before any federal detention action moves forward.
