Tell Your U.S. Representative to End Immigration Detention Quotas!

Did you know that when for-profit prison companies contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to run an immigration detention center there is often a provision requiring that ICE pay for a certain number of detainee slots even if they're not used?

It’s known as site-specific detention quotas or "guaranteed minimums." This arbitrary contract obligation incentivizes ICE to lock up as many people as they can, and devastates families and communities—all while feeding the bottom line of for-profit prison companies.

Detention quotas are inhumane and cause immense suffering. And they must end.

Please join us in calling on your representative in Congress to help end local immigration detention quotas by co-sponsoring HR 2808!
