Clergy vigil in support of immigrants draws a big crowd

  • On Monday, approximately fifty religious leaders affiliated with groups based in New Jersey gathered to block the entrance of the Delaney Hall ICE detention center in Newark.
  • The protest followed last week's breach of the facility by Newark Mayor Ras Baraka and Democratic Congress members who demanded oversight and raised safety concerns.
  • The clergy linked arms, chanted, sang hymns, and prayed for detainees inside while refusing to leave until arrested, asserting they volunteered for arrest.
  • A senior official from the Department of Homeland Security described the detention facility as holding dangerous individuals including murderers, terrorists, child rapists, and members of the MS-13 gang, and indicated that additional arrests are expected.
  • The protests have escalated tensions around the facility, resulting in arrests including Mayor Baraka and ongoing disputes over safety, permitting, and law enforcement actions.
