New Jersey Gov. Sherrill denied access to North Jersey immigration detention center as hunger strike enters fourth day - WHYY
Overview
About 300 protesters gathered outside Delaney Hall as detainees entered a hunger strike and demanded transparency about conditions. The standoff intensified when pro-ICE demonstrators confronted the long-running pro-detainee encampment, and Governor Sherrill said she was denied entry to the facility. After the attorney general reported aggressive actions by a large group, Sherrill and Newark's mayor backed a partial curfew and proposed protected protest zones to try to lower tensions. The situation has raised ongoing concerns about safety, access, and the possibility of federal responses that could affect local operations.
