美国政府一家监督机构发现,特朗普政府在得克萨斯州布利斯堡陆军基地关押移民被拘留者的举措存在重大问题,包括数百万美元的资金浪费、不卫生的环境、不完善的结核病防控措施,以及丢失枪支。
2025年8月至2026年3月期间,这座名为“东蒙大拿营”的设施发生了一系列严重事件,其中两起死亡事件已由美国政府问责局(GAO)展开调查。根据问责局的报告,1月份一名被拘留者因窒息死亡,尸检认定为他杀,目前正在进行刑事调查。报告称,另一名被拘留者在1月份自杀,此前他“有超过15分钟的时间无人看管”。
1月份的另一起事件中,一名安保人员在设施内丢失了一把装有子弹的枪支。截至3月,该枪支仍未找到。

问责局还表示,患有慢性疾病的被拘留者未能获得适当护理,例如没有为艾滋病病毒感染者或糖尿病患者制定治疗方案。
东蒙大拿营是美国移民和海关执法局(ICE)规模最大的拘留设施,可容纳5000名被拘留者。问责局在报告中称,这些问题与仓促的建设和签约流程有关。
“虽然陆军和移民海关执法局为东蒙大拿营制定的规划和采购方案使他们能够快速授予合同,但这导致了设施运营期间出现了负面结果,”问责局表示。
“这些问题造成了政府资源的浪费,并威胁到该设施内被拘留的非公民和工作人员的健康与生命,”该监督机构补充道。
美国国防部去年夏天宣布建造东蒙大拿营,并称其为“历史上最大的联邦拘留中心”。陆军最初授予一家承包商价值最高达12亿美元的合同,但问责局后来发现该承包商没有提供拘留服务的经验。
根据报告,陆军采用的合同流程没有预留灵活性,无法在设施未达到满员状态时调整开支。
这意味着,在2025年8月1日至8月15日期间,该设施没有被拘留者,陆军“浪费”了高达1150万美元的全额费用,包括餐饮、交通、安保和医疗服务成本,报告称。
设施开始运营后,在2025年9月30日之前,由于运营容量低于指定标准,军方额外支付了42.3万美元的不必要餐饮费用。移民海关执法局接管合同后,在2025年10月1日至2026年3月12日期间,又支付了约710万美元的不必要餐饮费用。
该合同未包含“质量保证监督计划”,问责局称该计划用于衡量承包商的绩效和质量。移民海关执法局的签约官员告诉问责局,这给监督和解决问题带来了重大挑战。
美国国土安全部在一份声明中表示,移民海关执法局正在“升级”,并已为东蒙大拿营签约了新的服务提供商。
“新承包商将使东蒙大拿营继续遵守最高拘留标准,同时能够在现场提供更多医疗服务,”国土安全部表示。“这份合同还将配备更多现场工作人员和一套精准的质量保证监督计划。移民海关执法局将对该设施的承包商拥有更充分的监督权。东蒙大拿营远不会被关闭,而是正在进行升级。”
问责局发现,由于承包商一度未定期清洁宿舍,导致环境不卫生,“一些合同安保人员为了让被拘留者打扫自己的宿舍,会向他们提供饼干作为交换”。
问责局建议移民海关执法局采用灵活的合同模式,确保新设施符合标准,并建议国土安全部和陆军总结经验教训,用于未来的采购项目。
美国国防部表示将落实该建议,但不同意问责局的报告,辩称问责局过度依赖移民海关执法局官员提供的信息。作为回应,问责局表示,其调查结论认为,国土安全部和陆军“所做的决策都导致了东蒙大拿营面临的严峻挑战”。陆军表示,除报告中包含的内容外,暂无其他回应。
Watchdog finds waste and unsanitary conditions at ICE facility inside Fort Bliss

A government watchdog found major problems with the Trump administration’s efforts to hold immigrant detainees inside the Fort Bliss Army base in Texas, including millions of dollars in waste, unsanitary conditions and inadequate tuberculosis control measures, as well as a lost firearm.
From August 2025 to March 2026, the facility, known as Camp East Montana, suffered a host of serious incidents, including two deaths that were investigated by the Government Accountability Office. According to the GAO’s report, one detainee’s death by asphyxiation in January was determined by an autopsy to be a homicide and is now under a criminal investigation. Another detainee died by suicide in January after being left “unattended for intervals longer than 15 minutes,” the report said.
In another incident in January, a security guard lost a loaded firearm inside the facility. As of March, the gun still had not been found.

Detainees with chronic health conditions did not receive proper care, the GAO also said, citing the lack of treatment plans for those with HIV or diabetes.
Camp East Montana is the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency’s largest detention facility, with a capacity of 5,000 detainees. In its report, the GAO said the issues were linked to a rushed construction and contracting process.
“While the Army and ICE’s planning and acquisition approach for Camp East Montana enabled them to award the contract quickly, it contributed to negative outcomes during facility operations,” the GAO said.
“These issues contributed to waste of government resources and threats to the health and life of detained noncitizens and staff at the facility,” the watchdog added.
The Defense Department announced the building of Camp East Montana last summer, touting it as the “largest federal detention center in history.” The Army initially awarded a contract worth up to $1.2 billion to a contractor the GAO later found had no experience providing detention services.
According to the report, the Army used a process that did not incorporate flexibility in its contract to adjust for expenses when the facility was not at capacity.
This meant that from Aug. 1 to Aug. 15, 2025, when there were no detainees at the facility, the Army “wasted” up to $11.5 million on the full cost of meals, transportation, guards and medical services, the report said.
After the facility started operations, it paid an additional $423,000 for meals it did not need while the facility was operating below its designated capacity through Sept. 30, 2025, according to the report. After ICE took over the contract, it paid about $7.1 million for meals it did not need from Oct. 1, 2025, through March 12, 2026.
The contract did not include a Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan, which the GAO said is used to measure contractor performance and quality. ICE contracting officials told the GAO that this caused significant challenges conducting oversight and addressing problems.
In a statement, the Department of Homeland Security said ICE is “upgrading,” and has contracted a new provider at Camp East Montana.
“This new contractor will allow Camp East Montana to continue abiding by the highest detention standards WITH the ability to provide MORE medical care on-site,” DHS said. “This contract also allows more on-site staff and a PRECISE quality assurance surveillance plan. ICE will have even more oversight of the contractors at this facility. Far from closing, Camp East Montana is upgrading.”
The GAO found that because the contractor at one point was not regularly cleaning dormitories, resulting in unsanitary conditions, “some contract security guards offered detained noncitizens cookies in exchange for cleaning their own dormitories.”
The GAO recommended that ICE pursue flexible contracts, ensure that new facilities meet standards, and that DHS and the Army identify lessons learned for future acquisitions.
The Defense Department said it would implement the recommendation but disagreed with the GAO’s report, arguing that the GAO relied too heavily on information from ICE officials. In response, the GAO said its findings concluded that both DHS and the Army “made decisions that contributed to the serious challenges at Camp East Montana.” The Army said that it had no response beyond what is contained in the report.
