Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% : "The GEO Group and ICE exhibit a nationwide pattern of discrimination, disregard for due process and attacks on the foundations of liberty, justice and democracy," Baraka said in a statement in the days before his arrest: Here in Newark, they also ignored court direction to apply for a Certificate of Occupancy (CO) at Delaney Hall, and other deliberate acts of non-compliance that put detainees, as well as employees, at additional, unnecessary risk.
47% : GEO and ICE don't have a fire department.
45% : "I never thought I would be incarcerated for something I believe is my democratic right -- to speak out against what I think was happening there, a violation of city and state laws and a lack of transparency.
33% : GEO was a major campaign donor to Donald Trump, and started to receive federal immigration detention contracts early in his first term, after Attorney General Jeff Sessions ended an Obama-era ban on the Department of Justice contracting with for-profit private prisons.
