A new California bill aims to tax corporations that make money from running ICE detention centers. Assemblymember Matt Haney says the bill, AB 1633, would put a 50% tax on profits from detention center operations. Revenue collected from the tax would be deposited into a newly created Due Process for All Fund. California has seven privately run ICE detention centers operated by for profit companies. Since the bill would raise taxes, state law requires that two-thirds of lawmakers in both the Assembly and Senate approve it.
