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 am surprised Debbie would support this movement. Florida DOES NOT NEED something else to be ashamed of ! Horrible prospect !

    Rep. Wasserman Schultz, I appreciate your strong leadership and progressive heart. I know you to be one who speaks out for transparency in government, and for justice, especially for those who are marginalized. I am asking you, please, to change your mind in endorsing CCA. Please set things right.

    PRIVATE (for profit) PRISONS MUST BE OUTLAWED.

    They are a travesty of justice in America.

    How can we allow such an obvious “conflict of interest” in the justice system?

    For-profit prisons are as immoral as for-profit healthcare. No real Democrat should defend either. The sooner we end both, the better off we’ll be.

    No to corporate run prisons!!! The private run services in our county prison profit off prisoners and even more so, the Family that loves them! It is a mill for non-violent offenders!

    The whole idea of “privateizing” what should be public services; sevices which by definition should NOT be run for profit is a betrayal of public trust.

    CCA should not be invited into your community. They are unethical and have no regard for human rights. My friends and neighbors successfully closed down their family detention facility in Taylor, Texas. This was a prison, complete with razor wire fences for non-criminal immigrants who were simply awaiting their hearings. They had children locked in 8×8 cells with no access to schools or friends or fresh air and sunshine. They are not a welcome neighbor.

    Private prisons guarantee that more people will be imprisoned for insignificant “violations”, criminalizing people forever, include women who miscarry in a wrong state! Enough!
