Elizabeth Warren's plan to ban private prisons

• Some of Warren's 2020 opponents, notably Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Rep. Beto O'Rourke, also want to end "private for-profit prisons."

Details on Warren's proposal:

• Abolish "all contracts that the Bureau of Prisons, ICE, and the U.S. Marshals Service have with private detention providers."
• Make private prisons subject to FOIA, and potentially make them subject to state open records laws.
• Prevent companies from "charging for re-entry, supervision, and probation services."

What she's saying: "This is exploitation, plain and simple. Our criminal and immigration systems are tearing apart communities of color and devastating the poor, including children. Women  —  especially women of color  —  are particularly saddled with the financial burden."
