Colorado blocks parts of law expanding health inspections at Aurora immigration detention center
x/united-states-immigration-and-customs-enforcement
— Aug 20, 2026
A Denver federal judge partially blocked Colorado’s HB-1276, ruling that the provisions requiring unannounced inspections of the Aurora ICE detention center and imposing penalties likely violate constitutional protections by singling out a federal contractor, while leaving other provisions largely intact. The injunction lasts until Oct. 15, 2026, when GEO’s contract to operate the facility expires, at which point the court indicated the outcome could change, but it also preserved some authority for county inspections and potential future reporting requirements.
