TACOMA, Wash.—Some 100 people rallied May 12 in front of the Northwest Detention Center, a 1,000-bed immigration jail here owned by GEO Group Inc. Supporters of immigrant rights organize monthly protests outside the facility. This month's action was organized by the Oregon and Washington New Sanctuary Movements in honor of Mother's Day.
