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!

    Dear Debbie,

    Maybe you have family stories of your ancestors who migrated because they wanted a better life for their children and grandchildren—who turns out to be you. Let’s remember our personal histories, mine from Germany, Scotland and England, and be kinder to current day immigrants than some were to our grandparents. Just Say no to CCA and feel the thanks of future generations.

    Prison operation in the United States have always been pathological, but the increasingly heavy involvement of commercial prison corporations has led to mushroom-like growth of the imprisoned sector of the economy. Please stop supporting CCA.


    Expansion of incarcerating and deporting currently non-legal immigrants is poor policy in itself, and a rotten excuse for hacing more and more of our national resources over to prison business.


    Please oppose these moves.

    Dear Rep. Wasserman Schultz,


    I normally wouldn’t write to someone for whom I’m not a voting constituent. (I live in California.) However, the inmates who would be housed in this facility will be federal inmates. In addition, you are the DNC chair, and I am an active member of the Democratic Party.


    Withdraw your endorsement of the CCA project. Please!

    This is appalling. As a Democrat, I receive DNC mail signed from Rep. Schultz and am sickened to know that she supports this facility.
