We have read reporting that ICE intends to lease or operate a private property in Roxbury Township for a detention center (see Sources, below).
There are many questions being raised about these plans and we encourage everyone who is concerned to contact our elected officials at every level – Roxbury Town Council, Roxbury Township Manager, Roxbury Township Attorney, as well as our state and federal representatives.
