The latest: For the first time in more than a decade, the House passed the National Defense Authorization Act without any language barring the transfer of Guantanamo detainees to the U.S. Instead, the act would allow transfers for medical treatment or for trials. But in the Senate, it was business as usual. Will a "clean" NDAA survive in the final reckoning? The National Religious Campaign Against Torture just put up another customizable letter you can send to your representative and senators: nrcat.salsalabs.org/takeaction-guantanamo-21-2/index.html?eType=EmailBlastContent&eId=1569819d-1f6b-4a45-9977-b507d0abfdb6

I'm not going to let up on my representative and senators until every prisoner is removed from Guantanamo, and apparently neither is the National Religious Campaign Against Torture. You might have read this week that a prisoner who was tortured so badly that he was ruled ineligible for trial 14 years ago was just released to Saudi Arabia. Now there are 38 men remaining at Guantanamo. NRCAT offers a timely customizable letter: nrcat.salsalabs.org/close-guantanamo-2022-2/index.html?

Yes, I do this every year -- and so does the National Religious Campaign Against Torture.
Wednesday, January 11, 2023 marked the 21st anniversary of the unconstitutional prison at Guantanamo Bay. The number of Muslim men and boys detained there peaked at 780. Today 35 remain, three fewer than when I last posted in March. The majority of them have never been charged with a crime and have been recommended for transfer.
Also on Wednesday, NRCAT offered this e-mail form to send to President Biden along with more than 100 other organizations:
