It is going to be located here at Baker Correctional Institution, and again, the process — the reason of this is not to just house people indefinitely. We want to process, stage, and then return illegal aliens to their home country.
I don’t think there’s another state that’s done as much as Florida. We want to stay ahead of the curve.
