Judge orders ICE to improve conditions at NYC immigration holding facility.

Jailed migrants blasted cells as dirty, smelly, and overcrowded. The temporary restraining order requires U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to limit capacity, ensure cleanliness, and provide sleeping mats in holding rooms at a key federal office building in Manhattan. A cell phone video recorded by a detainee showed about two dozen men crowded in a holding room, many lying on the floor without mattresses or padding.
