The Trump administration has announced plans to convert a closed prison located approximately 45 minutes north of Memphis, Tennessee, into an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility for detaining illegal immigrants. This initiative is part of a broader effort to enhance border security and immigration enforcement. The administration emphasizes that this facility will support law and order in Tennessee and contribute to national security. Concurrently, the White House has secured $165 million in funding through the One Big Beautiful Bill to further strengthen border security measures. Republican representatives highlight these actions as a reversal of previous policies and a commitment to putting America first.
