What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

San Antonio filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to block a proposed immigration detention facility. The city argues that the federal agency failed to review the plan’s environmental impact, violating the National Environmental Policy Act and the Administrative Procedure Act. The lawsuit also claims that DHS and ICE officials did not upgrade the facility's sewer and water system to prevent harmful contaminant discharge into surface waters.
