Elected leaders and community members in Santa Clara County said they weren't notified in January 2025 when the federal government leased a swath of unincorporated land near Gilroy with the intent to build a detention center for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. " The move to build a detention center in unincorporated Gilroy is an attack on the immigrant community, and it's an attack on Santa Clara County," Santa Clara County Counsel Tony LoPresti said. He added that his office is coordinating with state Attorney General Rob Bonta as it prepares a legal defense to block the detention center.

Hundreds showed up to a protest in Dublin Saturday led by Japanese American activists and allies against the proposed conversion of FCI Dublin into an ICE detention center.
