The detention of individuals without criminal records in for-profit facilities is a disturbing practice that must be reformed. These facilities operate with a perverse profit motive, incentivizing the prolonged and inhumane detention of people, including asylum seekers fleeing violence and persecution. This immoral system tears families apart, strips people of their dignity, and perpetuates a cycle of trauma. The harrowing experiences shared, like being detained for weeks without explanation, reveal a callous disregard for basic human rights fueled by corporate greed. No one should be subjected to these dehumanizing conditions, especially not for seeking a better life. We cannot allow private companies to profit from unconscionable suffering any longer. The for-profit immigration detention model has no place in a just society. I urge you to take immediate action to shut down all for-profit immigration detention centers and enact comprehensive reforms that restore humanity to our immigration policies and processes. The moral catastrophe unfolding in these facilities demands an urgent humanitarian response putting people over profits. End this exploitative system now before more lives are irreparably damaged.
