WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Senators Pat Roberts (R-Kan.), Tim Scott (R-S.C.), and Cory Gardner (R-Colo.) today hosted a press conference responding to the White House’s refusal to rule out executive action to close Guantanamo Bay and transfer prisoners to the United States.

The White House announced in August that it would survey facilities at Fort Leavenworth, KS, the Naval Brig in Charleston, SC, and two prisons in Colorado as potential sites to transfer the remaining detainees at Guantanamo Bay.
