From Amnesty International

Even before they’re charged with a crime, Bush has the power to prevent any criminal investigation into the activities of Cheney, Rumsfeld, Ashcroft, Gonzales and others whose behavior raises serious questions.

Send a message to President Bush telling him you oppose preemptive pardons for torture.

We must make it clear that preemptive pardons aimed at letting high-ranking officials escape accountability for undermining the Constitution and violating the law go against American values of justice and due process.

America's renewal depends on a recommitment to human rights. That recommitment must come during the first 100 days, or we risk losing this opportunity. That's why we need you to register TODAY to participate in our 100 days events and our inaugural day of action.
    Here are our ambitious goals for the first 100 days:
    1. A timeline for closure of Guantanamo
    2. An executive order banning torture
    3. An independent inquiry into abuses committed in the “war on terror”
Our strategy to make this happen hinges upon volunteers like you. We know grassroots organizing works.
