The federal government awarded renovation contracts Sunday for two warehouses — in Maryland and Arizona — as the government races to expand its detention network.
Among other interesting things about this company, KVG LLC, it does not appear in Maryland's business registry, which tells me it is not licensed to conduct business in the state of Maryland.
Concentration camp historian Andrea Pitzer has highlighted contractors as a pressure point we can push on. State legislatures/governors can come together to ban businesses making the human warehouses run from getting state and municipal contracts, subsidies or special tax breaks.

The real maddening thing is that these purchases are no bid contracts and do not have to have an environmental impact done. Outrageous. Social Circle detention warehouse capacity of up to 10,000 detainees outnumbering the small town population of 5,000 will completely overwhelm water, sewer, public services and road congestion. Good by small town life.
About a week ago, I saw a video of small number of residents in Social Circle, Georgia concerned about a Social Circle mega warehouse going up nearby. Today I saw that US Senator Raphael Warnock is involved. The number of detainees outnumber the population of Social Circle. I hope this one gets cancelled. I see a lot of these planned for red states but Warnock is saying to the residents there, you may have voted for Trump but not mega warehouses.
One trick authentarian propagandists use to hide and minimize the regime’s actions is to replace powerful and precise words with bland, confusing, and anodyne substitutes (bureaucratic neologizing). Don’t fall for it, don’t use the language of the oppressor.
I respectfully offer that you consider making the following word substitutions a standing part of your editorial policy to enhance the power and precision of your already monumentally impressive and helpful work:
detainee => prisoner
detain => arrest (or, in the case of ICE, — kidnap, dragoon, capture)

All this money spent is a waste of taxpayer dollars and
puts people’s lives in danger.
Who owns these corporations contracted for this fiasco? It is a money pit that uses lives as commodities.
How can they begin construction when the building doesn’t conform to any building/infrastructure codes for the location? Water,
sewage, fire codes etc etc??? where is the State Attorney?

Thanks for all you do to keep me informed.
Pennsylvania blocked similar warehouses on environmental grounds. Maybe Maryland can learn from this:
