Florence Facility Under Fire

Inside Arizona’s Florence Staging Facility, advocates are sounding the alarm over inhumane conditions that defy the facility’s intended purpose — holding migrants for just 72 hours.

Overcrowding and ICE’s recent waiver allowing longer holds have turned this processing center into a dehumanizing holding pen, sparking outrage and a new bill to reinstate stricter limits. As deaths in ICE custody rise, the human cost grows louder — and lawmakers like Rep. Grijalva are stepping in to expose what’s happening behind the walls.
