(Orlando, FL) - Democrat Rep. Maxwell Frost says he has confirmed that ICE has reserved a block of hotel rooms in Central Florida near UCF, Winter Garden, and Altamonte Springs.

Friday, he outlined three bills he's proposed to end gun violence, which he says includes the recent activity of ICE.

Frost said he wants to ensure that tax dollars are used to protect public safety and health - not to build ICE facilities.

The Congressman says he is disgusted by the latest ICE violence and wants tax dollars to be used to help the community not to take neighbors away.

He also says he believes plans are in the works to build another ICE detention facility in Orlando.
