From CURB: CCC officially deactivated:
The #CloseCAPrisons campaign honors this community win while also recognizing that there is more to be done to ensure that additional prisons across the state close safely and efficiently.

Prison closure can create billions in cost savings. These resources MUST be shifted to housing, healthcare, and education: systems of care that actually keep communities safe.

The Yuba Liberation Coalition (YLC) is thrilled to share that the Intergovernmental Services Agreement (IGSA) between ICE and Yuba County Jail will end! This means that ICE will finally cease using Yuba County Jail as a facility to detain individuals in federal immigration proceedings for the first time in twenty-eight years.  This marks an end to the last immigration detention contract with a California county!

The phrase prison industrial complex comes to mind .. #Rikers #decarcerate

Over the last seven years, city taxpayers have spent more than $18 million on that federal monitor, Steve J. Martin, and his team, according to data obtained by Gothamist and not previously reported. Yet reform at Rikers was neither enduring nor enforceable, according to an analysis of public data and interviews with more than a dozen people currently and previously involved in the jails.
