Will the New Congress Endorse Torture?
Nov. 10th, 2006 01:46 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
redneckgaijinYou might recall that this past September Congress passed the Military Commissions Act of 2006, which Bush subsequently signed into law. This law:
In effect, this law allows George W. Bush, or any subsequent President, to torture at will with zero accountability.
All but a handful of Republicans in Congress voted for it- including famous anti-torture activist John McCain.
Well, an election has come and gone. On October 2 I posted a list of every Congressperson and Senator who voted for this law. Here's that list again. Names in bold are of people who will be back in the upcoming Congress. Names in italics have been replaced with members of the same party.

I wouldn't bet on the Military Commissions Act getting repealed anytime soon...
- made the President the sole judge of what acts are torture and what aren't
- made the President the sole authority to choose whether or not to punish torturers
- gave the President unlimited power to imprison people, regardless of citizenship- including American citizenship- indefinitely
- denied people held as "unlawful enemy combatants" by the President habeas corpus, trial by jury and the protection of the Geneva Accords
In effect, this law allows George W. Bush, or any subsequent President, to torture at will with zero accountability.
All but a handful of Republicans in Congress voted for it- including famous anti-torture activist John McCain.
