- Delaney Hall snack purchases cast doubt on hunger strike reports, DHS says
Revenue from the Delaney Hall ICE detention center’s commissary tripled during the reported hunger strike period, contradicting claims of detainees refusing food. The Department of Homeland Security provided data showing increased snack purchases, suggesting detainees opted for commissary items over meals. Lawmakers had previously reported dire conditions and organized protests at the facility.
