Posted @withregram • @laresistencianw Together we can shut down down prisons and detention centers and #BanPrivatePrisons! Right now, Washington State’s house and senate have a bill (HB2576 in the Public Safety Committee and SB6442 in the Human Services, Reentry and Rehabilitation Committee) before them that will ban private entities from owning and operating prisons (including administrative detention) in Washington, or through a contract with Washington State. Let’s pass this bill! We can join other states like California and Illinois in the movement to decarcerate and close down prisons, jails, and detention centers. All prisons and detention centers are harmful, traumatic, and should be closed. We see the effort to close private prisons as one of the many ways we work towards ending detention and deportations in Tacoma, WA and beyond and one of the many ways we work towards a world with freedom of movement for all. In legislative terms, it’s a short session, which means we have a narrow window to pass the bill this year. We know we can't wait because private prison companies are going on signing sprees to extend contracts in states where there is a threat of a private prison ban! We know we can't wait because we want people to be returned to their families and communities now! We hope you’ll join us by taking action together! To keep the bill alive, we have to get it out of committee by Feb. 7th! Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to stay updated. Want to volunteer for this campaign?

Via Mark Barlett Justice involved individuals who are incarcerated at private prisons lose between 10-60 pounds while under supervision in private prisons. Private Prisons minimizes costs by skimping on provisions such as food. A psychiatrist conducted an investigation at a private prison in Mississippi and discovered that Justice involved individuals were severely underfed and looked “almost emaciated.” I witnessed this first hand at a private REENTRY/Detention center ran by CCA in San Diego where there was an immediate reduction in food portions for the population under supervision at their facility. They will do anything to save money at all costs with no regard to provide proper nutrition to human beings housed in their facilities. #banprivateprisons #endprivateprisons #endmassincarceration #prisonreform #criminaljusticereform
