Statement from Republican Gubernatorial Candidate Andy McKenna on Thomson Prison Issue

From the Campaign Office of Andy McKenna for Governor

“Neither Governor Quinn nor President Obama has sufficiently articulated a reason as to why moving GITMO detainees, who are the center of the Al Qaeda network, is a good idea and, unfortunately, rather than tending to the state’s real problems, including a budget spiraling out of control and record unemployment, Governor Quinn is distracted with a plan to bring terrorists to our neighborhoods all in the name of job creation.”
