💨 Abstract

Protests erupted in Newark as Donald Trump's administration opened a 1,000-bed immigrant detention facility, Delaney Hall, on May 1, 2025. Newark Mayor Ras Baraka and immigrant rights groups criticized the opening, citing permit issues and constitutional concerns. The mayor has sued GEO Group, the facility's operator, and is fighting the administration's immigration crackdown and deportation efforts.
