Watchdog finds millions wasted in ICE detention spending
Original: ICE has spent billions expanding immigration detention. A watchdog audit shows millions was wasted

The findings raise questions about oversight of detention contracts and how taxpayer money has been used as detention capacity has grown. The audit is likely to fuel ongoing debate over immigration enforcement spending and calls for accountability.
Why now: New watchdog findings of waste in ICE detention spending draw attention amid the immigration debate.
