We support the decision to permanently close FCI Dublin.

Evidence
“not suitable to be reopened for any purpose”; “We are opposed to the use of FCI Dublin for any purpose”
Assessments
The promise was to support permanently closing FCI Dublin, not to single-handedly complete the closure. In February 2026, while serving in federal office, Mark DeSaulnier joined a congressional letter stating the facility was 'not suitable to be reopened for any purpose' and opposing any future use of FCI Dublin. That is direct, on-record support for keeping the prison permanently closed, so the promise is fulfilled within the same term.
