Travis Air Force Base is reportedly being considered by the Trump administration for use as an immigration detention facility. Internal communications reportedly reveal discussions among federal officials evaluating the site for Homeland Security's detention operations. This plan aligns with President Trump's goal of deporting a million immigrants in his first year. Local Congressman John Garamendi expressed strong opposition, asserting that using the base for such purposes undermines its critical national security role. The details of the proposed facility remain unclear, as federal agencies have not provided specifics or confirmed the plans.
It's outrageous and inappropriate for the Trump Administration to use Travis Air Force Base as an immigration detention facility.
The proposed installation at Travis would be part of the effort to expand immigration detention nationally, aiming for a million deportations in the first year.
