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!

    ALEX & the Koch brothers have their hands and money to promote private prisons. That alone should be enough to say NO to CCA

    prisons for profit are immoral. profits from people’s incarceration is slavery. human trafficking. this vicious cycle only begets more corruption and crimes against humanity. you might try to lock away society’s problems behind the prison door, but that doesn’t make the problem go away. education, health care, and housing are the solutions that must form the foundation of civilized society.

    Business cannot be trusted in public affairs. Business is naturally drive by greed and greed eventually breeds corruption. We ought not privatize any part of government.

    Ms. Wasserman Schultz, as much as I admire you and agree with you on nearly every other issue, I must urge you NOT to support for-profit prisons. A system that rewards corporations with more profits for more inmates is inherently wrong.

    We need investments in education not more prisons. It is time that the US not be the leader in the developed world (and even the leader among some dictatorships) of imprisoning its citizens.

    This is what we would expect from the goddamned republicans. It seems that Debbie Wasserman Schultz should be replaced with someone whom cares about their constituents.

    Debbie, I admire you for what you’ve done in the past. You have long been a hero of mine. PLEASE say NO to CCA. What you are doing is contrary to what our president has stated. When ninety-eight percent of your constituents say NO, you are, in effect, saying you do not care about what your people want, nor do you want to follow our president’s stated desires. You have been a tremendous asset in Congress and I beg you as a fellow Progressive Democrat to reverse course on this. You are wrong; the people are right. I really hate to ask you this but HOW MUCH MONEY HAS CCA GIVEN YOU TO SUPPORT THEM? Yes, I am accusing you of taking dirty money which shocks the hell out of me; I think you’re better than that. I KNOW you’re better than that. Please examine your conscious. You KNOW what you are doing is wrong, wrong, wrong,


    May Hashem bless you, I know that you will do the right thing.
