Help Restore Our Civil Liberties


Friends-

We can put an end to a shocking assault on our civil liberties: Last year's National Defense Authorization Act included language that could allow the military to detain civilian suspects INDEFINITELY without charge or trial.

This year's NDAA could come up for a vote as soon as next week and we have a prime opportunity to reverse this travesty of justice.

Click here to fight back: Email your member of Congress right away:

Congressmen Adam Smith and Justin Amash will put forth an amendment to make it clear that the military does not have the power to arrest and indefinitely detain civilians without charging or trying them. Please urge your lawmakers to support their efforts and help us spread word far and wide.

Just click here to email your member of Congress right away.

Thanks!

Public announcement from Occupy Rapid City

Event Schedule:

The demonstration on Saturday May 12 will focus on the income disparity and corporate malfeasance that initially sparked Occupy. These issues have not gone away. From banks foreclosing on families by using fraudulent documents to Wall Street speculators creating a bubble in oil futures to the one percenters continue to lie, cheat, and steal in order to further enrich themselves. Meanwhile more and more Americans are struggling just to survive. There really is “too much month at the end of the money.”

Come on out this Saturday and stand with us. You will be glad that you did.
