State sues over ICE facility planned near DTW

Driving the news: The lawsuit argues ICE failed to consult Michigan officials and did not consider alternatives to the warehouse, such as existing prisons.

• "The Romulus warehouse is simply not — and never will be — an appropriate place for a large-scale detention center," Attorney General Dana Nessel said in a statement.

State of play: The lawsuit follows Nessel's earlier demand that ICE halt the project and a FOIA request seeking records on the purchase and planned use of the warehouse.
