A federal court in New York just ruled indefinite detention
UNCONSTITUTIONAL and issued a permanent injunction against use of that
law -- it would have allowed the military to detain civilians -- even
Americans -- indefinitely and without trial if they're accused of
certain crimes.
Please click here to tell Obama and your Senators to back off of his
support of indefinite detention, and tell your senators to oppose it
when it comes up for a vote this fall.

It's an egregious violation of the Constitution, a disgusting
infringement upon our due process rights, and has already had a chilling
effect on activists and journalists. That's why writer Chris Hedges and
six others sued to block it.
Shockingly, the Obama administration has consistently supported
indefinite detention this year -- signing it into law in the dark of
night on New Year's Eve and defending it in court. If we don't do
anything, they'll probably keep fighting to protect this law!
Click here to tell Obama to quit supporting indefinite detention.
