前亚利桑那监狱将重新开放为ICE拘留中心, 容纳775名移民,
A former Arizona prison will reopen as an ICE detention center housing up to 775 migrants, despite no contract and local opposition.
设在马拉纳的原亚利桑那州监狱准备重新开放,成为由MTC经营的ICE拘留中心,联邦文件显示,尽管尚未授予正式合同,但计划容纳775名被拘留者——超过预定容量的50%。
A former Arizona state prison in Marana is set to reopen as an ICE detention center operated by MTC, with federal documents showing plans to house up to 775 detainees—over 50% above its intended capacity—despite no formal contract yet awarded.
该设施由MTC在2025年以1 500万美元购买,将服务于ICE根据特朗普总统的移民议程扩大的内部执法目标,并辅之以450亿美元的资金增支。
The facility, purchased by MTC for $15 million in 2025, will serve ICE’s expanded interior enforcement goals under President Trump’s immigration agenda, supported by a $45 billion funding boost.
本地居民和立法者反对该项目,理由是缺乏透明度、对社区影响的担忧以及担心将Marana变成一个“监狱镇 ” 。 虽然MTC声称它将优先考虑安全和当地工作,但关于人员配置、业务和空间住房的细节仍不清楚。
Local residents and lawmakers oppose the project, citing lack of transparency, concerns over community impact, and fears of turning Marana into a “prison town.” While MTC claims it will prioritize safety and local jobs, details on staffing, operations, and space accommodations remain unclear.
合同一直有效到3月13日,未确定开标日期。
The contract remains active until March 13, with no opening date set.
