In light of a significant funding boost, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is rapidly advancing plans to establish migrant tent camps, with reports indicating the agency is considering several locations in Colorado, including La Junta and Walsenburg. However, local residents have voiced strong opposition to the proposed detention facilities, expressing concerns about their implications. Community members in Walsenburg and surrounding areas have publicly spoken against the potential use of local prison sites for ICE detainees, underscoring the tension between federal initiatives and local sentiments.
