Description: Freedom Ambassadors seek to end the U.S. policy of incarcerating immigrant children and their families -- many of whom are seeking asylum from murderous regimes -- by raising a groundswell of public outrage through outreach and education, as well as exerting heavy pressure in the bastions of power -- local, state, and national; to curtail the current expansion and building of for-profit prisons and to stop DHS/ICE from channeling mega-millions in tax dollars into these private enterprises, owned and managed by a few companies that reap obscene profits; to demand that our lawmakers reduce the cost of monitoring immigrants with less restrictive and less demeaning methods that allow them to continue productive lives in a family unit while awaiting a decision on their status; to expose all lawmakers who accept campaign contributions from the privatized prison industry and thus signal their approval of the exploitation of human misery for profit; to challenge the notion that being the supreme leader in incarceration, with one quarter of all the world's prisoners, makes our country safer and more secure; and to bring about a new national awareness about how fear-based politics are eroding the benefits of health, education, and well-being that have made our country strong in the past.
