Shut Down Trump's "Alligator Alcatraz" Concentration Camp

Donald Trump is running a secretive, nightmarish immigrant detention facility in Florida—and it must be shut down now.

Nicknamed "Alligator Alcatraz," this hellish compound near Lake Okeechobee is a monument to state-sponsored cruelty. Immigrants are being fed rotten food, denied clean water, and forced to sleep in vermin-infested filth. Families report medical neglect, lack of legal access, and inhumane treatment. Even elected officials have been blocked from entering, sparking lawsuits and public outrage.

This is a full-blown human rights emergency. Trump has dragged us backward, reopening the darkest chapters of ICE abuse and operating in total secrecy. The facility is reportedly being used to detain asylum seekers and immigrants swept up in aggressive raids. 

It's appalling, illegal, and morally indefensible, and it bears all the hallmarks of a concentration camp. Tell Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem: “Shut down Trump’s ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ concentration camp before more lives are destroyed.”

Public outrage has closed these kinds of facilities before—but only when we raise our voices together. Lawsuits are underway. Congressional inquiries are being prepared. But grassroots pressure can force DHS to act now.

Enough is enough. Every day this prison remains open is another day of suffering and injustice. This is a test of who we are as a nation.

Sign the petition to demand the immediate shutdown of this cruel, secretive detention center. We must act now—before more people are hurt. Tell Secretary Noem: Close "Alligator Alcatraz" now. End the abuse. Restore human dignity.

The petition to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem reads: “Shut down Trump’s ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ concentration camp before more lives are destroyed.”
