Why you must act:

Silence in a Time of Torture is Complicity

We have now come to a
defining moment, where before the world’s eyes the U.S. Congress is poised to

course outright.  It does not represent
us.  Read this statement, sign it, & flood the government officials ratifying torture with phone calls and emails.

Read what others are saying about the torture legislation, including Ariel Dorfman, Erica Jong, & Molly Ivins.
