UNDOING THE BUSH-CHENEY LEGACY: A TOOL
Ann Fagan Ginger is now in her 80's and blind to the point of no longer being able to read. All her life she has stood for civil rights and civil liberties. I hope this isn't Ann's last hurrah but because it may be, let's try to send her out in style by cooperating with this appeal, which she has just sent to me. Not being an attorney, I am forwarding it to you with the hope that every single Bush signing statement is repealed and all of those opinions from the Office of Legal Counsel which say the President has right to order the torture and murder of any one he wishes dead, a right which his father and Mr. Clinton usurped before him. Yes, yes my innocents, it all started with President Reagan. After repealing everything in sight, I think the new Congress ought to take a high-pressure water hose into the White House, and plenty of disinfectant, and turn lose that hose and all of the disinfectant and blast away until all sight and smell of fascism is gone... forever!

We need information from your organization/from you on every law passed by the Bush/Cheney administration that needs to be amended or repealed by the new Congress in 2009.
Meiklejohn Civil Liberties Institute is preparing anew small book for activists after the Nov. election:
"UNDOING THE BUSH-CHENEY LEGACY: A TOOL
KIT FOR CONTRESS.
Our goal is to include the text of every statute, regulation, executive order, signing statement, treaty, etc. that must be amended or repealed by the new Congress.
Please send us by June 1 the bad Bush laws in your field: Agriculture, Anti-trust, BICE, Corporations, Detention Of Enemy Combatants, Defense, Disability, Education, Election, Energy and Environmental Protection, FEMA, Habeas Corpus, Health Care, Homeland Security, Homeless, Housing, Immigration, Labor Unions, Military Commission, Prison Administration, Tribal Land/ Treaties, Veterans, Seniors, Welfare rights, etc.
Please send:
* Name of law or regulation or order
* If you have the citation, please send it also; e.g., Volume number in U.S. Code and section umber, e.g., PATRIOT ACT, Public Law 107-56 (2001), including 28 U.S. Code §2712.
We intend to be absolutely complete so PLEASE DO NOT ASSUME WE WILL GET YOUR STATUTE OR REGULATION UNLESS YOU SEND IT TO US!
The booklet will be small enough to send to Congress members and/or use when you visit them, and to give to the media.
* You do not need to send us the complete text of a law if the whole law is bad. Just send the name of the law and its basic citation.
* If only some words or phrases in a law need to be amended or deleted, please DO send the text that is the problem.
You may also send a VERY BRIEF statement of how the statute or reg has been misused or could be misused.
We will, of course, acknowledge the material received from each source.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PROMPT RESPONSE!
