    If the Biden administration is going to do processive policy it's going to be buried in loads of malaise of bureaucracy and documents so it allows for loopholes and other oddities to slip through the cracks so the system can run like normal.

    As expected, the Trump administration’s hard-line immigration29 policies have led to a record-high number of immigrant detainees.30 Currently, there are about 54,344 immigrants31 detained in about 200 detention centers across the country. In 2017, the last time ICE produced such data, more than three-fourths32 of the average daily detainee population was being held in a for-profit detention facility. CoreCivic and the GEO Group are recipients of more than one-half of private prison industry contracts.33 These companies manage the detention34 of immigrants seeking asylum, those awaiting hearings in immigration courts, and those who have been identified for removal. For every 100 immigrant detainees, 32 are in GEO Group facilities, and 21 are in CoreCivic facilities.35

    As of now, there are 28,000 prisoners in DoJ funded private prisons (affected by this so)

    In 2017, there were 35-40,000 detained in for profit ICE prisons (not affected by this wo). Can only imagine there are much more now. Jfc....

    Also, the other 100,000 inmates in state funded centers are not affected (though Biden technically can’t change this with an eo)
