Leesha Fagan signed Debbie: Say No To CCA! 2012-04-10 17:33:31 -0700Locking people up for profit should be illegal. It is certainly immoral. And it happens every day at for-profit ‘correctional facilities’. We should all be appalled! The U.S. is home to 4.47% of the world’s people, but 25% of the world’s people who are locked up are locked up in our prisons. If the prison is privately owned, as those of the Correction Corporation of America, the bottom line – profit – depends on filling the cells and keeping people detained. Lobbyists for this industry push for laws that help keep the prison numbers up.
Why is Debbie Wasserman Schultz ignoring her constituents and endorsing this grotesque ‘project’?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!
Add signatureIMMIGRANTS 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!
