The Trump administration is reportedly planning a major expansion of U.S. immigration detention capacity, aiming to increase the number of beds to more than 107,000 by January of next year, according to an internal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) planning document obtained by The Washington Post.
The roadmap outlines the opening or expansion of 125 facilities this year, including large-scale "mega-detention" centers and temporary "soft-sided" structures that can be erected in weeks.
