Newsom imposes 25% tax on private detention centers
Original: Newsom slaps 25% tax on private detention centers in sweeping pushback against key Trump policy
California Governor Gavin Newsom has announced a 25% tax on private detention centers operating in the state, framing the move as a direct pushback against the Trump administration's immigration detention policies. The levy targets private prison companies that profit from federal detention contracts, and the move is expected to draw legal challenges and intensify the ongoing battle between Democratic-led states and the White House over immigration enforcement.
Why now: The measure represents a high-profile Democratic countermove against Trump's immigration detention policy, drawing national attention.
