: The GavelHouse Measure to Halt Gitmo Closing Fails by Single Vote

An amendment to the Commerce-Justice-Science Appropriations bill that would have barred the use of funds to close the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba has been defeated by a single vote.
The amendment, proposed by Republican Congressman Jerry Lewis of California, was voted down by a final tally of 212 yeas to 213 nays. See this Associated Press article to learn more.
