Prisonomics 101: How the Prison Industry Got Arizona’s SB1070 onto Gov. Jan Brewer’s Desk

Immigration Impact discusses the NPR report that private prison corporations drafted Arizona's anti-immigrant SB1070 and then contributed to politicians who supported it.

"It would be helpful for the bandwagon of SB1070 supporters to pull back the curtain and take a look at the great and powerful Wizards of Arizona and their relationship with America’s private prison corporations. After all, politicians who take campaign contributions from corporations who blatantly exploit our broken immigration system as a money making opportunity clearly care less about legitimate solutions to our immigration problems and more about lining their yellow brick roads with more yellow bricks."
