How we close down Louisiana's for-profit migrant detention centers

For-profit migrant detention centers are notorious for horrific abuses, including medical neglect, sexual assault, and overcrowding. [Democracy for America Advocacy Fund](#) {NAME}, Louisiana, with its nine immigrant detention centers, eight of them run by for-profit corporations, has become a modern-day hell for migrants. These centers are designed to generate profit, not to provide care. The result? Widespread reports of medical neglect, malnutrition, and even sexual assault. Migrants that fled unimaginable violence and poverty, are now being further dehumanized, all for the sake of corporate greed. Migrants are not just numbers or detainees; they are human beings, and they deserve better. But for-profit companies care only about the bottom line. Their profits depend on overcrowding, understaffing, and cutting corners -- at the expense of the most vulnerable. Louisiana is ground zero for this corporate abuse, and it must end now! The only solution is the immediate closure of these for-profit detention centers. These corporations cannot be trusted with human lives. Every day these facilities remain open is another day migrants face suffering, and our government becomes complicit in these abuses. [We cannot allow the systemic human rights abuses rampant in these facilities to continue. Join the fight to demand the closure of these for-profit migrant detention centers now!]( [ADD YOUR NAME]( Private companies running these detention centers cut costs by understaffing facilities, leading to horrific conditions where medical needs go unmet, food is inadequate, and assaults are ignored. Every second that these places stay open is a continuation of this exploitation. The profit motive in these centers leads to one inevitable result: human suffering. In a system where filling beds equates to profit, companies have no incentive to ensure the well-being of detainees. This is not the nation we want to be. It’s time to end this exploitation and restore humanity to the system. We need to stand together and demand that these facilities be shut down. No person, whether they are a U.S. citizen or not, deserves to be treated this way. [It’s time to fight for justice, dignity, and respect for all people, starting with shutting down these detention centers. Demand the end of for-profit migrant detention now.]( Let’s keep defending the rights of migrants. - DFA AF Team [Power This Campaign]( Democracy for America Advocacy Fund is a 501c4 organization.
