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!

    We incarcerate more citizens than any other advanced country – proportionately, and that will never change, unless we stop building places to put more prisoners.

    Profit making on the backs of people should not be tolerated. Immigrats are people.

    What are you DOING Ms Wasserman Shultz? I am appalled you would side with The Prison Industrial Complex that uses SLAVE FREAKING LABOR. These people are greedy, they are heartless and they only see human beings as $$$$ signs. Stop it!

    The Chair of the DNC should act like a real Democrat. Please make the effort to do so.

    We need social solutions instead of locking people up in private for profit prisons. Last year it cost the taxpayers an average of $23,000 to imprision 400,000 deportees. We need a humane solution to this human problem, not more prisons!

    Government should not be out sourced to private corporations. We don’t need to add the profit motive to incarceration. How far will you go with this? You are a national leader of the Democratic Party; please don’t behave like a jungle capitalism right wing Republican.

    Your support of this facility surprised us, given your usual compassionate views. Your statement that a detention center will have minimum impact on the land for which it is zoned is beside the point. Please reconsider this inhumane project.

    Please do not force me to lose the deep respect I have for you by cow-towing to CCA, a charter member of the Prison Industrial Complex. The DNC can forget about future contributions also.

    I’m surprised and disappointed that you would support this. I have considered you, up until now, a strong Progressive voice. Is this what happens when you come under the influence of large donors to the party? Please reconsider what you stand for.
