The measures are part of a package of steps being taken by the new Democratic president to roll back policies of his Republican predecessor Donald Trump and promote racial justice reforms that he pledged to address during the election campaign. ?These are just some of the first steps,? said Susan Rice, Biden?s domestic policy adviser. Under the new policies, the Justice Department not renew contracts with private prison operators. Advocates have said privately operated prisons have contributed to an increase in incarceration rates and treated inmates poorly. ?Mass incarceration imposes significant costs on our society and communities, while private prisons profiteer off of federal prisoners in less safe conditions for prisoners and correctional officers alike,? the Biden administration said in a fact sheet. If he wants to reduce prison population, kill the War on Drugs. We lost it. It is not winnable. About like trying to win a war in Somalia, or Afghanistan. He will need to continue to build the wall. We don?t really need a wall. Just do like Mexico does when they findsomebody illegally in their country. Confiscate everything the illegal hasand deport him after a stay in a very bad prison.
