FILE - This March 11, 2014 file photo shows Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt. on Capitol Hill in Washington. The Obama administration says there are legal safeguards in place in the event suspected terrorists being held at Guantanamo Bay are ever relocated to the United States, and that detainees would be barred from receiving asylum and would have no right to remain in the country permanently. Leahy said a report to Congress lends support for lifting the congressional ban on transferring detainees to the US and should calm fears that it would harm public safety. (AP Photo/J.
