Sign the Petition: Shut Down Alligator Alcatraz
Your member of Congress
Right now in the Florida Everglades, immigrant detainees are being held in horrific, dangerous conditions at a state-run detention facility known as “Alligator Alcatraz.” It’s a humanitarian disaster, and Congress must act now to shut it down.
Detainees are reporting no running water, failing electricity, food with worms, and no access to showers or legal counsel. Some are permanent residents. Others are asylum seekers. But all are being denied the most basic human rights, and held in military-style tents where they sweat in the day and freeze at night, surrounded by swarms of mosquitoes.
Your Member of Congress has the power to demand oversight, launch investigations, and push for the immediate closure of this abusive facility. But they won’t act unless they hear from people like you.

The conditions at “Alligator Alcatraz” are a blatant violation of human rights and an assault on the values our country claims to uphold.
Our laws and Constitution were designed to prevent unchecked government abuse, yet here we are, with a state-run detention center operating in secrecy, denying immigrants basic necessities like water, food, and medical care. People are being detained in freezing tents without showers, legal counsel, or access to clean water.
I am demanding that you take action to shut down this facility immediately and launch a full investigation into the abuse occurring there.
The American people will not stand by while our government turns a blind eye to cruelty and neglect. We cannot allow taxpayer dollars to fund a modern-day internment camp in the middle of the Everglades.
It’s time for Congress to step in. End the abuse. Shut down Alligator Alcatraz now.
