💨 Abstract

The U.S. government is constructing a massive detention camp in west Texas to hold up to 5,000 immigrants. Awarded $232 million in Army funds, the facility will primarily house single immigrant adults. This move follows the construction of another detention center in the Florida Everglades. President Trump has allocated significant funds for border enforcement and detention, intensifying mass deportation efforts despite declining illegal border crossings.
