MR. PRESIDENT - INVESTIGATE TORTURERS |
While President Obama deserves to be applauded for his first good step to stop torture as a policy, he should now take next step and "investigate the torturers" to hold them accountable. Justice is not piece meal but whole deal. Let us, as people of faith & conscience take action: 1. Endorse the call for an investigation. 2. Support H.R.104 - a bill that calls for an investigation. Ask your representative to co-sponsor HR104 & support Rep. John Conyers. 3. Ask others to sign. 4. Learn more. |
