ACLU and other advocates sue to block migrants from being sent to Guantánamo Bay

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth meets with Sailors assigned to Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Hudner (DDG 116) during his visit to Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, Feb. 25, 2025.

The lawsuit says there is no legitimate reason to send migrants to Guantánamo because the U.S. has ample detention facility.
