Angela Canterbury Quoted in The Hill’s Overnight Defense

The Hill Overnight Defense Round-Up – October 22, 2015

 

 

REACTION IN FAVOR OF OBAMA’S VETO:

Human Rights First’s Raha Wala: “Congress and the administration need to create a workable path toward closing Guantanamo as they finalize the defense bill.”­­

Virginia Sloan, president of The Constitution Project: “The Constitution Project applauds President Obama’s decision to reject onerous and unwarranted restrictions on the transfer of detainees from Guantanamo Bay by vetoing the defense authorization bill.”

ACLU: “Now Congress needs to send back the president a bill that will let him close Guantánamo and end indefinite detention, and he needs to take decisive action to make his promise to close the prison a reality. He needs to do this soon, before his legacy is irreparably tarnished by the stain of Guantánamo.”

Angela Canterbury, Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation Executive Director: “President Obama is right to prevent Congress from breaking their own rules of so-called fiscal discipline.”
