New Jersey to Replace ICE Security with State Police Outside Newark Detention Facility
New Jersey will have state police take over public‑safety functions from federal immigration officers outside the privately run Delaney Hall detention facility in Newark, establishing a 'peaceful protected zone' for demonstrators and planning checkpoints. The move comes amid days of clashes with ICE as detainees inside stage hunger and labor strikes, raising questions about how enforcement will work, whether sanctuary protections apply, and how involved federal agents will remain.
