Profiteering by ICE at taxpayer expense
You say you will “push for clear explanations of how federal decisions affect taxes, public services, and the overall federal budget and that responsible stewardship of taxpayer dollars is not optional; it is essential.” For profit prisons are making billions from detention of immigrants with no cr
