Business is booming for the private prison industrial complex, and a lot of it has to do with virtue signaling from conservatives exploiting the death of a woman named Laken Riley
While Laken Riley is the name on the bill, if she hadn’t been the one there would have been another. There is no doubt in my mind that these modern robber barons would have found a name to virtue signal with no matter what. Friends, now is the time to call your representative in all of their offices and tell them that “The use of a tragedy to pass legislation explicitly designed to enrich one industry is deplorable.” If the representative voted in favor of the bill, add “Due to your support of this bill, I will be voting for your opponent in the upcoming primary and election.”
Massive thanks to V for making this information available for us and explaining it so well.
