STOP ICE from using private prisons as concentration camps in Colorado.
To: Gov. Polis
From: A constituent in Colorado Springs, CO
July 11
With the expansion of funding for ICE, the Denver ICE field office wants to partner with private prison companies like CoreCivic to expand and use their facilities to “detain illegal immigrants”. CoreCivic gave millions to Trump’s reelection campaign, and now ICE funding will go back in their pockets. This is corruption, plain and simple.
We the people of Colorado stand with immigrants and the working class. We do NOT want to have our tax dollars going towards another Alligator Alcatraz. We REFUSE to have a Colorado concentration camp. It is unacceptable, and horrifically evil. Do your job. Listen to the people you pledged to protect. Stop looking out only for your own interests. You say that you are pro-Christian values, but money and power are your god. Do better. Stop this horrific injustice from occurring. Put an end to the construction of more concentration camps.
