Feinstein calls on Trump to close Gitmo amid legal challenge from 11 prisoners over 'perpetual detention'
Fox News, Jan 12, 2018, Lukas Mikelionis

U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein on Thursday urged President Donald Trump to close the Guantanamo Bay prison in Cuba.

The California Democrat's request coincided with a lawsuit filed by 11 Guantanamo prisoners, who want the Trump administration to release them.

Feinstein, who serves on the Senate's Judiciary and Intelligence committees, has been fighting against the detention facility since its creation 16 years ago, under President George W. Bush, and has called on both the Bush and Obama administrations to relocate all the detainees and close the prison.
