Jane Shim is a senior policy attorney with the
Immigrant Defense Project in New York, which seeks broad changes in how the state and federal government directs its energies against immigrants. She points out that when local prisons work with ICE, they open themselves up to lawsuits when they allegedly restrict people s rights on behalf of ICE. There have been many across the country, both against prisons and local police, such as a $14 million payment LA County had to make late last year. Currently there s a class action lawsuit against the Orange County Correctional Facility and the Orange County Sheriff for unlawfully detaining people who, the suit argues, pose almost no danger if they were released back into their communities and asked to appear for hearings.

The City of Coleman operates the electrical utility, purchasing power from Constellation. AEP Texas serves as the wires service provider that provide transmission and distribution service to the AEP Substation located on the edge of Coleman’s city limits. During the winter storm, the City of Coleman was placed on a controlled black out by AEP for 46 hours. The City was never placed on rolling blackouts like other communities. The Coleman City Manager requested AEP at least place the city on a rolling blackout schedule so citizens could warm their homes periodically and was denied.
