Speech #1090177544

We are currently holding dozens of people at Guanatanamo who we know based on the militarys own records are not guilty of anything. Yet they have not been let go. This legislation also makes a distinction between citizens and lawful permanent residents. Citizens cannot be subject to military commissions and their flawed procedures. Yet lawful permanent residents. those green card holders who are on the path to citizenship. could be sent to military commissions. Green Card holders must obey our laws. pay taxes. and register for the draft. They are serving our country in Iraq. They have an obligation to protect our laws. and they deserve the protection of those same laws.
