Elizabeth Warren has released a plan to ban private prisons, which she writes are 'profiting off of inhumane detention and incarceration policies while ignoring the families that are destroyed in the process'
Photo: Joe Skipper/Getty Images Senator Elizabeth Warren is now running on what people have been saying about her for months: She’s got a plan for that — for student loan debt, for expensive child care, and now, for private prisons. On Friday, she released a new plan that would, she says, ban private prisons. Warren isn’t the only Democratic presidential candidate to criticize private prisons, or to suggest an end to their use.
“Washington hands billions over to corporations profiting off of inhumane detention and incarceration policies while ignoring the families that are destroyed in the process,” she writes. “We need to call that out for what it is: corruption.”
