Show Notes
Environmental groups challenge Floridas immigration detention center in the Everglades, arguing no environmental review was done under federal law. The center, nicknamed Alligator Alcatraz, opened last summer and is still holding people. The federal appeals court is considering whether federal funding and control trigger the environmental law. The state argues both are needed, but environmental attorneys argue substantial federal involvement is enough. The future of the center and the sensitive wetland remains in limbo as judges deliberate.
