    March 7, 2025

    CBS News and The Washington Post report that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will resume detaining families with children at detention facilities in Karnes City, TX, and Dilley, TX. An internal government report obtained by CBS indicates that "the first group of migrant parents and children" were currently being held by ICE "in a detention facility in Texas designed to hold families with minors." Additionally, CoreCivic, a private prison company responsible for managing many ICE detention centers, announced the resumption of family detention at Dilley.

    Family detention was discontinued under the Biden administration, and the facilities were used exclusively for adult immigration detention over the last four years.
