Majority Of Arrested ICE Protesters At Newark's Delaney Hall Came From Outside New Jersey

The recent protests outside Newark’s Delaney Hall, a federal immigration detention center, saw a significant number of arrests, with records revealing that many of those detained weren’t even from New Jersey. Only a few of those arrested were local residents; the majority came from places like Washington and Arizona. This suggests a coordinated effort from out-of-state activists to participate in the demonstrations, highlighting the national scope and impact of these protests against immigration policies. The influx of outsiders underscores the widespread concern and mobilization against the detention center’s practices.
