> The Senate is taking up the 2013 NDAA TOMORROW (Thurs).  Several senators are 
> poised to put forth amendments to revoke or narrow the indefinite detention

> Demand Progress members have sent hundreds of thousands of emails to Congress

> Because there are several amendments in play, our ask is broad and simple: 
> Please urge your Senators to support any and all amendments to revoke or 
> narrow indefinite detention powers.

> Earlier this year we helped push an anti-indefinite detention amendment to 
> the House's version of the NDAA to the brink of passage.  The Senate is 
> friendly turf for us: We have a real chance of winning this fight.
