2025年7月2日,一面美国国旗在驶离加利福尼亚州旧金山湾恶魔岛的船上飘扬。
唐纳德·特朗普总统正申请1.52亿美元,用于重启这座臭名昭著的恶魔岛监狱作为安全设施的首年运营成本。
这笔申请资金被纳入白宫的预算蓝图,将作为联邦监狱局17亿美元拨款提案的一部分,该提案旨在提高狱警薪酬和改善工作条件,以期解决长期存在的狱警短缺问题。
白宫于周五公布了这份预算提案。这类拨款申请通常很难在国会获得全额通过,但它能反映出本届政府的优先事项。

如今,这座臭名昭著的监狱已是重要历史地标,每年接待约120万名游客。它于60多年前因基础设施破败、维护成本过高而关闭。当时,“仅为维持监狱运营所需的修复和维护工作”估计就需要300万至500万美元,不包括日常运营成本。
当被问及修复该设施的总成本时,联邦监狱局告诉CNN:“作为一个机构,我们正在推进评估工作,并制定重启和运营联邦惩教所恶魔岛所需的行动方案。”
将其重建并作为活跃监狱重新开放,一直是特朗普持续关注的议题。
去年5月,特朗普在社交媒体发文称,他已指示“联邦监狱局会同司法部、联邦调查局和国土安全部,重启经过大幅扩建和翻新的恶魔岛监狱,用于关押美国最凶残、最暴力的罪犯”。
“恶魔岛的重新开放将成为法律、秩序与正义的象征,”他在Truth社交平台上写道。
美国联邦监狱局局长威廉·K·马歇尔三世当时表示,他的部门将“动用一切途径”落实总统重启恶魔岛的计划。
坐落于旧金山海岸外一座岛屿上的恶魔岛,作为联邦监狱运营了近30年,关押过该国部分最危险的罪犯,其中包括阿尔·卡彭、乔治“机关枪”凯利以及詹姆斯“老白”布尔杰。
根据联邦监狱局官网信息,该监狱于1963年关闭,“原因是该机构的运营成本过于高昂”。

President Donald Trump is seeking $152 million to cover the first year of costs to reopen the infamous Alcatraz prison as a secure facility.
The funds, requested as part of the White House’s budget blueprint, would be part of a $1.7 billion proposed boost to the Federal Bureau of Prisons to improve pay and working conditions in hopes of ending a longstanding correctional officer shortage.
The White House released the budget proposal on Friday. It amounts to a funding wish list that is rarely enacted in full by Congress, but it provides insight into an administration’s priorities.

Now a major historical landmark and destination for roughly 1.2 million tourists annually, the notorious prison closed more than 60 years ago due to its crumbling infrastructure and high maintenance costs. At the time, it would have cost an estimated $3 million to $5 million “just for restoration and maintenance work to keep the prison open,” not including daily operating costs.
Asked for the total cost to restore the facility, the Bureau of Prisons told CNN, “As an agency, we are moving forward, evaluating, and formulating the actions necessary to reopen and operate USP Alcatraz.”
Rebuilding and reopening it as an active facility has been an ongoing interest of the president’s.
Last May, Trump said in a social media post that he was directing “the Bureau of Prisons, together with the Department of Justice, FBI, and Homeland Security, to reopen a substantially enlarged and rebuilt ALCATRAZ, to house America’s most ruthless and violent Offenders.”
“The reopening of ALCATRAZ will serve as a symbol of Law, Order, and JUSTICE,” he posted on Truth Social.
US Bureau of Prisons Director William K. Marshall III said at the time that his agency would “pursue all avenues” to implement the president’s plans for reopening.
Alcatraz, located on an island off the San Francisco coast, operated as a federal penitentiary for nearly 30 years and housed some of the most dangerous criminals in the country, including Al Capone, George “Machine Gun” Kelly and James “Whitey” Bulger.
It closed in 1963 “because the institution was too expensive to continue operating,” according to the Bureau of Prisons website.
