Open The Government - Let’s Turn the Tide of Secrecy
Terrific coalition site for opening the government back to the people.
Issues of democracy, national security, public trust and accountability, environment, health, safety.
They have an experts directory, and an action center.
The latest information has to do with the history of White House Counsel Alberto Gonzales (who has been nominated to replace U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft).
While you’re there, write a letter to your reps to support The Civil Liberties Restoration Act of 2004 (CLRA). It would move the United States forward at this important time by demonstrating to the world that this country takes seriously the rights of people it detains.
The CLRA would:
· End Secret Hearings.
· Ensure Due Process for Detained Individuals.
· Establish Independent Immigration Court.
· End Special Registration.
· Make Penalties Commensurate with Violations.
· Require Accurate Criminal Databases.
· Ensure Access to Evidence.
· Mandate Reports on Data-Mining.
· Limit Secret Seizures of Records.
Get informed. Take action.
