On Tuesday, June 1, President Donald Trump toured the newly-established immigration detention center known as "Alligator Alcatraz" in the Florida Everglades. This 5,000-bed facility, controversial for its surrounding alligator-infested waters, symbolizes the stringent measures of his immigration policies.

OCHOPEE, Fla. (AP) — The first group of immigrants were scheduled to arrive Wednesday night at a new detention center deep in the Florida Everglades that officials have dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz,” the state’s attorney general said.

Immigrants who are arrested by Florida law enforcement officers under the federal government’s 287(g) program will be taken to the facility, according to a Trump administration official.
