Planned

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is in discussions to purchase large immigration detention facilities from two major private prison contractors, CoreCivic and GEO Group. This marks a shift in the federal government's immigration detention strategy towards owning more detention infrastructure rather than leasing. The potential sales could occur in the second or third quarter of 2026.

Description

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is in discussions to purchase large immigration detention facilities from two major private prison contractors, CoreCivic and GEO Group. This marks a shift in the federal government's immigration detention strategy towards owning more detention infrastructure rather than leasing. The potential sales could occur in the second or third quarter of 2026. The effort follows stalled warehouse conversion projects for detention centers due to lawsuits, environmental concerns, and local opposition.
