Tell Congress: Say No to Immigration Detention at Fort Dix

Expanding immigration detention to military facilities sets a dangerous precedent for coopting military resources for internal law enforcement and is contrary to the values our nation should represent. The expansion of immigration detention to Fort Dix is not normal. We cannot allow New Jersey to be an epicenter of Trump’s unprecedented mass detention and deportation agenda and a hub for due process violations.
