✦AI Summary
ICE has published new contract terms for detention centers that explicitly state state and local laws do not apply to their operations. This move follows a federal judge's ruling that private prison contracts cannot override state oversight and health inspections.
The new terms were published earlier this month, a day after a federal judge ruled that a contract cannot override state law and ordered ICE’s largest Pacific Northwest detention center opened to Washington health officials.
