Lisää We Have Friends Everywhere

Welcome to We Have Friends Everywhere, a podcast where Arizona policy gets stripped of spin and partisan theatrics. Hosted by two political independents—one a former Republican, the other a former Democrat—we’re done playing for teams and ready to tell the truth.Each week, we break down a single-issue impacting Arizonans—from school vouchers and water rights to housing policy and election integrity. We’ll walk you through the history, the legislativeplayers, the money behind the madness, and most importantly, how it all affects you.This isn’t about left or right. It’s about the top and the bottom. Because at the end of the day, the average Arizonan has more in common with their neighbor than they do with billionaires and political power brokers. We’re here to connect the dots—and piss you off just enough to getinvolved.If you’re tired of being manipulated, underrepresented, or outright ignored, you’re in the right place. Welcome to We Have Friends Everywhere.

Episode 3: Private Prisons in Arizona, Another Very Expensive Waste of Our Tax Dollars.

If you have thoughts about any of our episodes or have an idea for a future episode, please reach out to us! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2592884/fan_mail/new] In this episode, we break down how private prisons became a major part of Arizona’s corrections system and why the state relies on contract prison beds at one of the highest rates in the country. We walk through where private prisons came from, how sentencing policy and population growth shaped Arizona’s prison infrastructure over time, who operates these facilities today, what they cost taxpayers, and how decisions about incarceration capacity are made through the state budget and legislative process. We also explore how Arizona compares to other states, who benefits from contract prison systems, and what policy options exist if the state chooses to manage prison capacity differently in the future.

We walk through where ICE came from, how Arizona became a national testing ground for enforcement laws like SB 1070, who the major political and institutional players have been over time, how immigration enforcement intersects with Arizona’s economy and communities today, and what this all means for people living in a border state that continues to shape the national immigration conversation.
