The Next Step by Tom Harkin

On Tuesday, I joined thousands of concerned Americans like you from around
the country to demand that Congress restore habeas corpus and shut down the
prison facility at Guantanamo Bay. As I told the group in Washington, to
restore Americas moral authority we need less Patriot Acts and more acts by
patriots.
We need American patriots like you to join together and stand up to George
W. Bush and Dick Cheney by telling them that we will not let them torture in
our names, that we will not let them throw people into prison without the right
of habeas corpus, and that we will no longer let them make a mockery of our
Constitution.
Will you stand up and be a patriot today by donating $500, $250, or even $50
to my campaign to show the Bush Administration that we mean business when it
comes to protecting our basic rights?
Thousands of patriots like you took an important step to help restore our
civil libert ies last month by joining with me to sign the ACLUs petition in
support of my legislation to close the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay,
while requiring that criminal detainees be transferred to state-of-the-art,
maximum security facilities within the United States. Only then will we regain
our moral leadership and our ability to rally support in our fight against
terrorism.
Because of your voice, the media is now reporting, that the Bush
Administration may be reaching a decision on whether or not to close the
facility. But we cannot let up we must continue stand up for human rights and
the Constitution.

National Day of Action to restore habeas corpus and show that you stand with us
in restoring our fundamental rights by making a contribution to my campaign
today.
