    DHS-Ideas for Immigrant Detention Include Converting Hotels

    Ideas for Immigrant Detention Include Converting Hotels and Building Models

    New York Times
    By NINA BERNSTEIN
    Published: October 5, 2009

    The Obama administration is looking to convert hotels and nursing homes into immigration detention centers and to build two model detention centers from scratch as it tries to transform the way the government holds people it is seeking to deport.

    These and other initiatives, described in an interview on Monday by Janet Napolitano, the secretary of homeland security, are part of the administration’s effort to revamp the much-criticized detention system, even as it expands the enforcement programs that send most people accused of immigration violations to jails and private prisons.

    The cost, she said, would be covered by greater efficiencies in the detention and removal system, which costs $2.4 billion annually to operate and holds about 380,000 people a year.

    largely through Immigration and Customs Enforcement contracts for cells more restrictive, and expensive, than required for a population that is largely not dangerous.
    No, but they WILL run if they can, in order to avoid deporation from their plush lives they have stolen into here, thus the reason for the bars Janet.....duh.

    Immigration is not a right that belongs to anybody and everybody who wants to come here. It is a privilege we Americans alone decide to convey. - Patrick J. Buchanan
