New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill (D) on Sunday said the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will resume family visits at the Delaney Hall Detention Center in Newark following a string of protests over immigrants’ treatment at the facility.
“Starting today, limited visitation will resume at noon, and regular visitation hours will be restored beginning tomorrow,” Sherrill wrote in a post on the social platform X.
“Families should contact the facility directly for additional details. Law enforcement will help escort families into the facility. It is critical that outside actors allow this to happen safely,” she added.
For days, demonstrators have participated in a hunger strike outside of the detention center in an effort to draw attention to the alleged inhumane treatment of undocumented immigrants housed at the facility.
