Immigration advocates are urging the Newark Board of Education to cut ties with Driscoll Foods, a food distributor in the Northeast, accused of providing food to federal detainees at Delaney Hall. The activists are demanding that nearly $12 million worth of contracts be given to another company when they come up for renewal on June 30. School board members and administrators deny these allegations, stating that their hands are tied by state and federal procurement laws. They say the contracts were awarded to the company deemed "most responsive, responsible and advantageous to the district" based on price compliance and capacity. The campaign includes online petitioning and in-person activism.
