On May 29, 2026, the Department of Homeland Security released a statement debunking false claims made by sanctuary politicians about the ICE detention facility at Delaney Hall in Newark, New Jersey. Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis said the allegations were “categorically false” and that they were inciting violence outside the facility. The DHS listed several common claims and their factual rebuttals. For example, the claim that detainees lack medical care was refuted with a description of comprehensive medical, dental, and mental‑health services available to all detainees. A supposed hunger strike was denied, noting that detainees receive three certified meals daily. DHS also clarified that no pepper‑ball incidents or physical attacks on detainees occurred during the recent protests, and that death rates in ICE custody remained below 0.01% during the Trump administration.
