Donald Trump Prison Proposal Released
Three lawmakers have introduced a bill to rename the federal prison in Miami, Florida, after former President Donald Trump. The bill states that "any reference" to the Miami Federal Correctional Institution would be changed to the "Donald J. Trump Federal Correctional Institution."
The proposal to rename the federal prison in Miami was sparked by Republicans' plans to change the name of Dulles airport. "When our Republican colleagues introduced their bill to rename Dulles after Donald Trump, I said the more fitting option would be to rename a federal prison," the congressman said. "I see no reason to wait," he continued. "Donald Trump faces nearly 100 felony charges. He has been found liable of sexual abuse and, subsequently, for defaming the victim of that abuse. He has been fined hundreds of millions of dollars in a civil fraud case. It is only right that the closest federal prison to Mar-a-Lago should bear his name."
Garamendi added in the joint statement that he could not "think of a more fitting tribute to our former president, Donald J. Trump, than renaming the closest federal prison to him in his honor."
An email was sent to Trump's campaign for comment on Friday.
