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!

    Please the special report on CNBC tv titled “Billions behind bars” this is a great program that will inform you what CCA is all about. It’s all about profits.

    Do your duty and serve your public by voting against CCA and any anti-immigrant legislation. Use your years representing the good against the greedy evil. Don’t waste your life siding with imprisoning hard working immigrants seeking a dignified life.

    What happen that this popular Democrat wants to promote for profit prisons? This is why the Resource Base Economy is the only real solution to our economic woes. Check the Zeitgeist Movement for details and help change the direction we are going. Let us all focus on Human Needs and Human Health and not profit for the few on Wall Street and their Bankers.

    We are disappointed that Congresswoman Schultz has decided to to ignore the will of the people of Florida and support a project which puts corporate profits over concern for human suffering. This is a terrible position for the head of the DNC to defend in a Presidential election year.

    Debbie,

    You are to valuable a person to the DNC to vote against the wishes of your constituents. Florida has more pressing problems – like water.

    Please help to stop private prisons, including CCA. They profit at the expense of the people.

    Thanks
