Catholic investors led by Jesuit priests said private-prison operator GEO Group rejected a shareholder vote designed to review its operation of ICE detention facilities. GEO operates some of the largest ICE detention centers, including facilities in South Texas and Adelanto, California, which hold thousands of detainees. The investor group has called for transparency regarding facility operations, facility visits, and reported concerns about detainees being transferred to facilities in El Salvador.
