The White House has drafted an order that, if approved, would send some Gitmo detainees to Illinois. This document is just one of the many ways that the White House is looking into for moving the detainees. An official decision has yet to be made. Barack Obama has too much to do such as the Health Care Bill, among other things. The local economy of Illinois could benefit from the creation of jobs, since the Thompson prison would be turned into a federal penitentiary. However, many people living in the area don't like that idea, because they don't want to house terror suspects stateside.

My opinion: Leave the terror suspects in Guantanamo Bay.
