INSUFFICIENT LEANING

Is it true that private prison companies earn revenue per inmate per day under government contracts?
Unclear. Two peer-reviewed sources indicate private prison companies hold government contracts tied to detention beds and profit from government immigration policy, and one reference notes about $4 billion in 2017 revenue from private prison contracts. None of the placed items explicitly confirms the per-inmate-per-day payment structure the claim asserts.
