President Obama signed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) into law. It contains a sweeping worldwide indefinite detention provision.

The dangerous new law can be used by this and future presidents to militarily detain people captured far from any battlefield. He signed it. Now, we have to fight it wherever we can and for as long as it takes.

Sign the ACLU's pledge to fight worldwide indefinite detention for as long as it takes.

I’m outraged that the statute President Obama signed into law authorizes worldwide military detention without charge or trial. I pledge to stand with the ACLU in seeking the reversal of indefinite military detention authority for as long as it takes.

And I will support the ACLU as it actively opposes this new law in court, in Congress, and internationally.

Signed, [your name]

As a matter of fact, Obama issued a Signing Statement to the effect that, while he needed the appropriation to keep the DOD running, he was not supportive of the provision making the military responsible for terrorism cases and enabling Monte Cristo-type detentions and he would not give orders to put those provisions into operation.

You might want to ask why the Republicans insisted on putting these poisonous provisions into the bill against the President's firm opposition, unless they were hoping to have him veto the entire bill and thereby defund the entire military.

He's lied about other things and authorized the murder of a US citizen with no due process. What makes you believe he is telling the truth about that? And even if he was 100% sincere, which I doubt very much, his signing statement is meaningless, has no binding effect on him or anyone else who might hold the office after him.

I thought the Signing Statement was precious, it looked like it was written by a snarky high-school sophomore.
