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!

    I expect a feminist woman & Democrat to ACT WITH HUMANITY.

    Ms Shultz,

    My family has been on this continent now known as the US for over 400 years and anyone post that is considered to be an immigrant to my family. Most likely your family came later, making you and your family immigrants, in comparison to ours.

    So maybe we should put your family in the group of ‘immigrants’ and put your or yours into a prison made to make money versus send PEOPLE back to their own country; aren’t we above this type of alienation? Or maybe your family was involved when they put the American Japanese into pens; or the Chinese during the 30’s.


    You are practicing McCarthyism – I thought we’d grown as a nation but you are undoing what so many veterans have fought for; the U.S. gov’t is not going to take immigration action as we are moving forward where nationalism won’t have a place as we will be 3 countries as a continent; and represented as that.


    Be careful where you tread, as it will come back to bite ya!

    These are PEOPLE not animals – but then bet you’d not put the family pet into one of these places. Would you?

    As you are viewed as a leading light in Congress, I find it hard to believe that you would support such an awful concept and corporation. What next? Membership in ALEC?

    Private prisons are a bad idea, no matter how you look at it, unless you happen to be one profiting from keeping people in prison. Everyone else looses. These do not save money and they do not rehabilitate.
