<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"> </p>
<div>He will expound upon the context of private prison operators who set out to profit from the deepening immigration crisis in the United States. <span>Companies like Corrections Corps of America (CCA) have seen steady growth due to the countryʼs policy of locking up </span><span>immigrants in privately-managed detention facilities. Companies like CCA have spent millions to shape this </span><span>policy, win contracts, and ensure that the rules are fixed in their favor - all at the expense of some of the </span><span>countryʼs most vulnerable people.</span></div>
