Action Alert:What ever happened to Habeas Whatsus?

I won't belabor the importance of Habeas Corpus, "The Great Writ", except to point out that without it we have no rights because this is the only way a citizen can have their day in court to determine whether your rights have been violated.

There is no justice without it!

Right now the Habeas Restoration Act is being debated on the floor of the Senate and the current vote count is:

51 - Yea
7  - Nay
42 - Unclear

Senator Leahy's office sent me an e-mail:

Yesterday, we wrote to you about our Habeas Corpus Restoration Act which is currently being debated on the floor of the U.S. Senate.  Thanks so much to the thousands of you who have already signed on as citizen co-sponsors, helping us build momentum for this critical legislation!

Unfortunately, a number of Republican Senators are once again trying to block our efforts by threatening to filibuster our amendment.

There's going to be a vote on the bill that could come as soon as Wednesday -- that's tomorrow -- to try to beat back their filibuster, and we'll need 60 votes to do it.
