Restoring habeas.

“A day after two military judges ruled against the Bush administration’s system for trying terrorism detainees,” the Senate Judiciary Committee announced it was preparing to approve legislation to restore habeas corpus on Thursday. Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) “said he would be willing to bring such legislation to the floor.”

UPDATE: Contact your senators and urge them to support the Habeas Corpus Restoration Act.

UPDATE II: FireDogLake has a list of Judiciary Committee members you can call.
