Illinois governor profits off ICE detention center contracts

Gov. Bruce Rauner this year reported a profit from a private equity fund that owns a health care group servicing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention centers, including facilities that hold immigrant families with children.
In his most recent statement of economic interests, the multi-millionaire Illinois Republican governor disclosed earnings from a fund that owns Correct Care Solutions, a for-profit health care provider that has millions of dollars in government contracts with jails and prisons across the country, including immigrant detention centers.
Rauner, facing a rocky road to reelection this November in this heavily Democratic state, has been reluctant to even mention Trump’s name...

The governor, who has estimated his net worth at more than $500 million, did not place his expansive portfolio into a blind trust before taking office in 2015.

During his first year in office, Rauner, who does not accept a state salary, reported $188 million in income, predominantly from investments. That figure, which covered 2015, was more than three times his income the year earlier, when he didn’t hold an elected office.
For 2016, Rauner and his wife reported more than $91 million in state taxable income.
