U.S. Rep. Jason Crow announced that Buckley Space Force Base in Aurora, Colorado, will not be used to process and house detained immigrants as previously stated by ICE. The congressman toured the base and confirmed that it will only serve as a staging location for law enforcement and a coordination center.
Congressman Jason Crow announced on Monday that Buckley Space Force Base in Aurora , Colorado , will not be used to process and house detained immigrants as previously stated by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement ( ICE ). This announcement came after Crow toured the base and met with senior leadership, who informed him that Buckley would only serve as a staging location for law enforcement and a coordination center for ongoing operations. The initial statement from U.S.
Northern Command last week had indicated that ICE would utilize the base as a temporary operations center, staging area, and holding location for detainees. However, Crow's Monday statement contradicts this earlier information, potentially reflecting a change in policy by the Trump administration. \Crow expressed his concerns about the potential impact of detaining migrants at Buckley, stating that it could divert military personnel from their primary duties and negatively affect national security missions and troop morale. He emphasized the importance of transparency and regular oversight to ensure that any federal law enforcement activities at the base remain within appropriate boundaries. The congressman reassured the public that he would continue to monitor the situation closely and keep his constituents informed about developments. \While the news regarding Buckley is a relief for some, the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition remains vigilant. They acknowledge the threat to Aurora's immigrant community persists and urge preparation for potential future raids. Raquel Lane-Arellano, the communications manager for the coalition, stressed the need to spread awareness and empower the community to protect themselves and their families. Lane-Arellano emphasized that the alleged change in plans does not alleviate the fear and damage already inflicted on the immigrant community by the initial announcement
