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!

    Florida’s private prison establishment is a disgrace. This practice should be banned not expanded.

    For profit prisons are a terrible idea no matter for what use. When prison is reduced to making as much profit as possible, everyone suffers.

    Stop criminalizing and profiting from what is an administrative violation. Equally important, indefinite detention without a right to a lawyer is an unconstitutional response to being undocumented.

    Seriously? Private prisons are in your “need to support” column? You have to know these private incarceration machines are all about profit and ignore human rights and freedoms. Please reconsider and withdraw your support for these inhumane greedy institutions.

    I live in Congresswoman Wasserman-Schultz’s district in Fort Lauderdale. Though I believe that some sort of facility is necessary, I strongly oppose the decision to privatize these facilities. Procuring CCA to engage in these services is unethical and the Congresswoman should withdraw here support.

    It takes real work to come up with a good solution to a problem, putting people in jail becasue the issue is a hard one to handle isn’t the answer. I expect better from Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz. This is one of the reasons I don’t and wouldn’t contribute directly to the DNC anymore.
