- CDPHE fields questions about Aurora ICE facility TB investigation as groups demand more state action
Immigration rights groups rallied outside the Colorado State Capitol, demanding increased state action on a stalled tuberculosis investigation at the Aurora ICE detention facility. The Adams County Health Department stated that GEO Group, the facility operator, refused to grant ACHD access needed for a state-mandated health investigation following a confirmed TB case. CDPHE representatives acknowledged evaluating options like issuing a public health order but noted it does not guarantee compliance.
