GEO's current facility page lists Delaney Hall in Newark with capacity 1,000, client U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, visitation procedures, and support services including ICE's exclusive use of the facility.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The operator's current facility page indicates Delaney Hall remains an active ICE detention facility, so the commitment to shut it down and end operations has not been delivered as of the refresh date.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): DeLauro took concrete appropriations action aimed at withholding regular DHS funding from ICE/CBP pending reforms, but this did not itself close Delaney Hall or end its ICE operation.

The promised outcome was to shut down Delaney Hall and permanently end its operation. The available evidence indicates Delaney Hall remains an active ICE detention facility operated by GEO, so the substantive outcome has not been delivered. DeLauro did take a concrete same-term appropriations action aimed at withholding DHS funding from ICE/CBP pending reforms, but that did not close Delaney Hall or end its ICE use. This supports an effort badge, not delivery or partial delivery.
