Debbie: Say No To CCA!

Why is FL Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz siding with the Corrections Corporation of America and not her constituents in Southwest Ranches? 98% of her constituents DO NOT want a new for-profit immigrant detention center!

IMMIGRANTS ARE NOT FOR SALE

We call on Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-20) to WITHDRAW her current endorsements for CCA’s project.

The Obama Administration announced a change in the priorities for detentions and deportations, to focus on real national security concerns, not on separating parents from their children or deporting DREAMers who are only seeking a better future.

It is time for ICE to stop the immigrant money making machine and tell CCA to GO AWAY from Southwest Ranches.

THIS PETITION IS NOW CLOSED - WE REACHED OUR GOAL!!! But feel free to leave your comment!

    The USA has more people in prison than any other country ! The USA has 5% of the world population and 25% of prisoners. Something is very wrong with the US system of justice!

    Here in Nashville, ICE assigns a minimum immigration bond of $5000, even for people arrested for No Driver License. This is simply a ruse to herd these poor people into CCA/other privately managed facilities in Louisiana, thereby stuffing the pockets of CCA and similar companies.


    It is pathetic that the DNC Chair is backing such a proposal. It’s not enough that a Democratic Senate with 60 Dems was unable to pass comprehensive immigration reform. Now we have to add insult to injury with this craziness. Enough already!

    Rep. Wasserman, I respect your voice on so many issues, but the privatization of prisons is very troubling. We don’t need profit-makers pushing for more detentions of undocumented workers.
