Bloomberg Drops Vendor Who Used Prison Labor

December 24, 2019 · 9:27 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“Michael Bloomberg’s presidential campaign is ending its relationship with a vendor amid reports that the vendor used prison labor for campaign work.  First reported by The Intercept, the campaign, through a third-party vendor, contracted the services of ProCom, a New Jersey-based company that runs call centers out of at least two prisons in the state of Oklahoma,” CBS News reports

“According to the Intercept, incarcerated women in the Oklahoma minimum-security women’s prison, Dr. Eddie Warrior Correctional Center, made calls on behalf of the Bloomberg campaign to California voters.”
