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 Representative Wasserman Schultz,

    We need to keep our jobs in the public sector. Outsourcing our prisons is the beginning of the slide into outsourcing other public responsibilities and resources. As a hard working American citizen, I don’t want to see our public sector jobs decline. Please uphold our progressive values and say no to CCA.

    Respectfully,

    Wendy McCulley

    Sickening that there is such wide gap between our proclamations of freedom, justice and the rule of law, on the one hand, and the blatant promotion of PRIVATE PROFIT MAKING PRISONS. WASSERMAN SHULTZ should be ashamed. But then again, being the DNC, water carrier for Wall street, I’m not surprised.

    CCA is despicable, they should be outlawed. CCA is a major contributor to ALEC and is a strong factor in why our country has the highest incarceration level in the world. They guarantee a full bed occupancy when they court states to go with them, knowing that the states are looking for revenue from them.

    This country was founded on the principal of government of, by and for the people. Yet, countless politicians and government worker continue to ignore this basic percept and give support to special interests instead of the people. Please listen to your constituents and oppose this measure.

    Do the right thing, Debbie Wasserman, not the profitable thing. CCA is wrong and so is the for-profit prison system they want to build for immigrants. It’s inhumane, to say the least. Say no to CCA!

    Progressives shouldn’t be on this side of the issue!!! Where are our values and where is our cohesivenss as supporters of freedom and liberty? Isn’t this country scary enough without privatizing our prison system? The New Jim Crow!!! Alive and supported now by a liberal woman. Oh, dear.
