I am at a firm representing a number of the Guantanamo detainees and I can tell you that this is very bad. It would immediately end a years-long struggle in court for even the most rudimentary due process.
But there is hope, and you can help. We have heard that on Monday, Senator Bingaman of New Mexico will propose his own amendment to strip the Graham amendment of this awful provision. Please call your Senator and urge them to support Sen. Bingaman's counter-amendment. Today's vote was close - we need only 4 Senators to switch sides. You can find out how your Senator voted at

The 5 dastardly Democrats voting for this were: Conrad, Landrieu, Nelson, Wyden, and, you guessed it, Lieberman.
PLEASE CALL!
