GreenLatinos and the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition sued DHS, alleging it violated the National Environmental Policy Act by not completing an environmental review for the planned Big Horn Correctional Facility. GEO Group holds a five-year contract to reopen the shuttered 1,250-bed prison as Colorado’s second ICE detention facility; a separate suit challenges local zoning.
