Detainee Rights Update

AP News Alert:
WASHINGTON (AP) The Senate has passed legislation endorsing President Bush's plan to prosecute and interrogate terror suspects.
Well done!

UPDATE: Majority Leader John Boehner (via email):
"Tomorrow I expect the House to consider and pass the bill approved by the Senate and send it to the President's desk so we can begin to put terrorists such as alleged 9/11 mastermind Khalid Shaikh Mohammad on trial for their crimes. By preserving this critical program and arming the President with the tools he needs to keep America safe, our efforts to disrupt terrorist plots and save American lives with this vital program can continue. I would urge Democratic leaders to reconsider their 'No' votes on bringing dangerous terrorists to justice and put the interests of the American people ahead of their own."
