ACLU on Foreign Policy

American Civil Liberties Union

 


Injustice of Gitmo is costing us a fortune

The ACLU has repeatedly stated that the prison at Guantanamo Bay is an affront to American values and the rule of law. But we have also learned--thanks to a report by former Defense Secretary Hagel--that detention at Guantanamo breaks the budget as much as it is wrong. This unnecessary spending comes at a time when budgets are shrinking and even the most vital programs for veterans, service members, and their families are subject to painful cuts. The injustice of Guantanamo is costing us a fortune.
