http://www.demaction.org/dia/organizations/ccr/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=1500Emergency Action Today! Stop the Senate Stealth Amendment on Detainees!
As allegations of secret CIA torture facilities around the world dominate the headlines and the detainees at Guantánamo Bay continue their hunger strike, the Center for Constitutional Rights has received word that Senator Graham of South Carolina is planning to introduce an amendment to the defense appropriations bill that would strip the federal courts of jurisdiction and prohibit them from even hearing arguments against indefinite detention not only from Guantánamo detainees, but from anyone who has the misfortune of finding themselves at any U.S.-run facility anywhere. Even within the United States Do not let this happen! STOP THIS ASSAULT ON THE CONSTITUTION: WRITE YOUR SENATORS NOW.
PLEASE ALSO CALL YOUR SENATORS RIGHT NOW and urge them to vote against the Graham amendment. And please circulate this message widely.
