() The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is attempting to expand its footprint in California as raids continue in the state.

Just recently, CoreCivic a private prison and detention contractor reached an agreement with ICE to convert its California City facility into the state’s newest and largest migrant detention center.

The company said it received initial funding of $10 million with maximum funding of up to $31.2 million for a six-month period starting in April, during which the two parties will continue to negotiate a long-term agreement.

On Thursday, ICE demanded entry to Dodger Stadium but was denied by the team. The agency said CBP vehicles were in the stadium parking lot very briefly, unrelated to any operation or enforcement.

Despite that, agents have become a major presence in California, going back a few weeks now, which started with raids of several locations in Los Angeles. ‘s Nancy Loo says they went after a Walmart, a car wash, and a Lowe’s store also on Thursday.

The Department of Homeland Security hasn’t released the number of arrests ICE has made in California thus far, but it’s suspected to be in the thousands.

In addition, a federal appeals court decided Thursday to leave 4,000 National Guard troops in Los Angeles in the hands of the Trump administration while the state’s objections are litigated in federal court.

Vice President JD Vance is also visiting Los Angeles on Friday to deliver remarks and tour a joint federal operation center.
