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 find it very hard to understand why a person who purports to have the interests of her constituents at heart instead is working against them! As a fellow Democrat, this makes me very ashamed of Debbie! CCA is one of the most evil companies in the U.S. making $$ off the misery of immigrants! Work on making new immigration law, not on locking up immigrants to make this company richer!

    Prisons for illegal Immigrants?

    If you want to act constructively, Tattoo them for future ID and Send them Home.

    Prisons do NO GOOD to Anyone.

    Or are they there to study ENGLISH taught by Professional Qualified Professors? An intensive course should take 12 weeks.

    While studying, Give them A1 Health Care and RESPECT as YOU WANT RESPECT. After the course, Then Send them home to get Good Qualifications.

    DO GOOD FOR THEM.

    Yours sincerely, Helena Greene

    For-Profit corporations running prisons is wrong and a HUGE part of the reason the U.S. incarcerates more citizens than any other country. SHAMEFUL! Conflicts of interest in our politicians are ruining our country.

    I can’t believe you are supporting a corporation that bends the rules in order to increase profits…all at the expense of freedom. Exactly how much money did it take for CCA to buy you out? You disgust me.

    Your work as chair is very appreciated. On this issue, I encourage you to reconsider. For profit prisons are not good for our country.

    Rep. Wasserman Schultz. I am dissapointed in you. No not support CCA. How did the lobbyists get to you? Do your research. There are horror stories about this money-making machine. Listen to your constituients. Your support of this corrections concept is dead wrong. SHCCCC
