The center has been held up by the Obama Administration as visible example of a crackdown on illegal crossings from Central America, while civil rights advocates are suing the federal government, complaining that lack of access to legal representation has turned the Artesia center into a “deportation mill.” (AP Photo/Juan Carlos Llorca)
