Since he most likely filed the bill today, info won't be available until tomorrow.

I think it is OUR responsibility to ensure that word of the bill gets out to the public because you know DAMN WELL the MSM won't say a goddam word.

No reason this can't get the same push as the anti SOPA movement today.

With that in mind, I have begun contacting news organizations to try and get them to air this out and tell the world about what Ron Paul did today. Any help is appreciated.

This is the text of my letter to the MSM

On the Floor of the House of Representatives today, Presidential Candidate Ron Paul announced that he had submitted a bill to repeal section 1021 of the National Defense Authorization Act - this section, when it was signed into law, allowed the government to permanently detain non citizens and citizens alike indefinitely and without recourse until the "end of hostilities" in the War on Terror.

In "grassroots" in the thread I started there someone came up with a list of email addresses. Lets hammer them
