  • GEO Group, the world's second-largest private prison company and ICE's largest contractor; builds and operates detention centers for ICE
  • Core Civic, one of the largest private prison companies and among ICE's largest contractors
  • General Dynamics, a weapons company that provides DHS with surveillance technology, including a system with personal information that ICE used to deport 450,000 people
  • and more…
