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!

    If you don’t change your position and side with your constituents rather than with corporate profits, then your constituents will have the opportunity and the obligation in November to replace you. That, unfortunately, will leave you in the position of having to accept a very lucrative lobbying position for CCA. Evidently justice is only for the elite!

    Private detention centers and prisons need people to make money. This means keeping people longer and with less reason. Bad ideas and more expensive. Look at Arizona.

    We have 5% of the world’s population, but imprison 25% of the world’s inmates. Stop the insanity. Work to decrease the numbers in our prisons, and thereby free up existing space, by passing reasonable laws and addressing social issues that breed desperation. That includes reasonable immigration laws and responsible enforcement.

    Ck the record from valid sources. These guys have a serious profit motive and very limited human compassion.
