Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is one of the key figures in the political wrangle over whether undocumented immigrants in the USA will be legalized or deported. He's also the recipient of over $100,000 in campaign contributions from the private prison industry, whose profits would skyrocket if his push for prison for all those people is successful.

Chuck Schumer is the lead Senate Democrat working on immigration reform–he gets to decide whether millions of undocumented immigrants will be imprisoned or legalized. Yet he's also taken over $100,000 in campaign contributions from the private prison industry. Is it any surprise he's pushing for billions more dollars spent on increased enforcement and detention of immigrants?

We can't trust Sen. Schumer to push for fair legislation when he's accepting money from private prison companies that have a strong interest in jailing as many immigrants as possible. How much of an interest? The two corporations from which Sen. Schumer took money, GEO Group and CCA, made $296.9 million in profits from the jailing of immigrants last year.

Tell Sen. Schumer to return this money immediately.
