Since President Obama signed the NDAA legislation into law a few days ago, I've been looking for action from anyone in Congress to undo the indefinite detention language. Senator Diane Feinstein of California looks to have introduced something to that effect, could be one of the first. I have to say 'one of the first' because I've heard about legislative action like this a few times now, but this is the first one that I could properly source.
(quick edit: I should mention this is dated 12/15/2011, but it's the first I've seen of it.)
Washington—Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, today introduced the Due Process Guarantee Act of 2011, legislation that states American citizens apprehended inside the United States cannot be indefinitely detained by the military.
Right off the bat I see the mention of 'inside the United States' and it leaves me wondering about the rest of the world, but at least it seems to be a step in the right direction.
Also, the list of cosponsors given in the press release is sort of baffling, a mix of Senators I'd expect, along with some I'd prefer to dislike, but there they are anyway.
I received this information through Demand Progress, and they also provided a simple way to send a message to Congress in support.
Whatever your views on Obama's signature on the NDAA bill, whatever your interpretation of his signing statement, there's laying blame and there's fixing the problem. I'm more interested in fixing the problem. So here's an outlet -- critique it, support it, whatever seems best to you.
