Restore habeas corpus: “Please call your senators right now and urge them to vote “YES” on Senate Amendment 2022, an amendment to restore habeas corpus as part of this year’s defense authorization bill. S.A. 2022 is an amendment to the defense authorization bill to restore the constitutional due process right of habeas corpus, which protects against unlawful and indefinite imprisonment. This fundamental right was stripped away for some people by the Military Commissions Act of 2006.

We know the vote will be close. The Bush administration is working overtime to defeat this amendment, and every vote will count.” (ACLU)
