Stop the Crete Detention Center
Local citizens fight against private prison in Crete.
The Village of Crete is in negotiations with both Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency and Corrections Corporation of America, a private company, to build a 750-bed combined maximum and minimum security prison.
Mayor Michael Einhorn and the Village Trustees can stop this by withdrawing from all negotiations on the prison. We're calling on the Mayor and the Trustees to listen to and stand with the citizens of Crete and the surrounding towns that would be adversely affected by this project.
That's why I signed a petition to Michael Einhorn, Mayor, which says:
"Stop the Detention Center project in Crete" You can sign the petition here.
