Urge Your Elected Officials to Support a Commission of Inquiry

The Inspector General’s report released on August 24, 2009 describes the horrific abuse of detainees in U.S. custody.  The report goes beyond what has previously been released to describe CIA agents threatening prisoners with death and carrying out a mock execution. It also describes the use of waterboarding and other methods of torture and cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment.

The report demonstrates conclusively the need for a Commission of Inquiry to investigate our nation’s use of torture.  Please send an email to your senators, member of the House of Representatives and the President supporting a Commission of Inquiry.
