Perhaps the "National Moratorium on Prison Construction" which was jointly sponsored by the National Council on Crime and Delinquency and the Unitarian-Universalist Service Committee, could be 're-activated' with other allies to address this situation. More recently, the "For-Profit Prison" companies have compiled a 'dismal record' in how they house 'convicted felons' and 'juveniles', too, especially when taxpayers foot the added bill of 'rescuing' under-staffed prisons from riots, etc.
