Check out our fact sheet on the NDAA (http://bit.ly/tqDZ3G), detailing the three dangerous provisions. Specifically, Section 1032 requires that the military hold anyone who is “(A) a member of, or part of, al-Qaeda or an affiliated entity; and (B) a participant in the course of planning or carrying out an attack or attempted attack against the United States or its coalition partners”--effectively barring the traditional role of the FBI and law enforcement from investigating terrorism suspects in the United States. This information is also available on the petition page itself. Please see the letter to Senators Harry Reid and Carl Levin using the linked text or the photo on this blog. Thanks for your comment, Scott!

I hate signing petitions I don't understand. In what way would these provisions “stop the FBI and law enforcement from effectively investigating terrorism suspects”?
