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!

    This is not a good move for dems. In this case increasing customers for a private business means increasing the inmate populations. Privatization is what George Bush was all about. I expected something different from you. Is it too late?

    I generally respect your work, but your support for CCA is a poor decision. Prisons that make a profit off immigrants is a big mistake.

    For profit means you make money off of it. Jails are correctional institutions, not slave labor camps.

    We must find alternatives to incarceration for non-violent offenders. We need fewer prisons, not more.

    The Corrections Corporation of America and other for-profit prison companies are a blight on this country, and the key reason that, per capita, the US has more people incarcerated than RUSSIA! They imprison people NOT to rehabilitate them, but to make a profit on them — and immigrants are their top victims. Don’t do this to your constituents!!
