Regardless of who wins the presidency, gerrymandering will ensure that Republicans keep control of the house, and they are never going to vote for this. Privatizing government functions + locking people up are two of their favorite things.

They'd probably have to make banning it conditional on receiving certain federal funding, which would work I think (constitutionally).
