President Obama: Veto the Defense Authorization Act

This is an unprecedented repeal of our civil rights. This bill would give the military unchecked power over our citizens. This bill is so dangerous not only to our rights but to our country's security that it was criticized by the Directors of the FBI, the CIA, the National Intelligence Director, the U.S. Defense Secretary, and the Justice Department. On Tuesday, the Senate passed this bill. President Obama, please do not allow our Republic to become a military state. President Obama, please keep your promise and veto the the National Defense Authorization Act.

Why is this important?

The National Defense Authorization Act would allow the military to indefinitely detain SUSPECTS of terrorism without trial or legal representation. The military would be authorized to operate domestically within US borders to potentially detain US citizens without trial.
