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!

    This private jail system is an absolute scam. I do not expect anymore of our democratically elected officials are going to be signing bills supporting an ALEC driven industry, with Macy’s and Nordstroms and the US Military having its goods produced by prisoners. The immigration and drug war pushes for new customers is enough evidence that we must return this industry to a NOT for profit venture. Honestly! Do we have no other innovation? No other market to develop? As the ‘developed’ nation with the most prisoners, in a system clearly skewed towards certain segments of our society, our prison system needs an entire review. Moving forward with such suspect collaborators is a problem. Still, it seems so few of our representatives are willing to even take the bold steps she has, so that must mean the others are cowering behind their sugar daddies.

    Say No to CCA, it’s a shame if we allow corporations to make profit by taking the human rights of those individuals who cannot defend themselves.

    Citizens committed of crimes should be incarcerated in public facilities staffed by public employees. Any other model invites abuse and corruption. Just think about it.

    what a scam—for profit prisons invite corruption/abuse by the courts, law inforcement, & political factions. A society ignorant enough to allow this is beyond redemption…

    CCA’s facilities are almost invariably human rights disasters, and people in Southwest Ranches realize that a few extra jobs isn’t worth having a torture chamber in their backyard.
