Demand Answers about U.S. Torture Policy

Members of the Senate Judiciary Committee can take an important step toward shining a light on the authorization of torture and abuse when they question Attorney General Michael Mukasey tomorrow.

When Mukasey last testified, he refused to state whether waterboarding was illegal. Since then, much has come to light about the Bush Administration's interrogation policies.

Tell the committee to seize this important opportunity to ask the tough questions!

All torture for any reason is wrong. Stop using violence to gain dubious information that is always coerced.
