Utah Lawmakers Urge Congress to Repeal Indefinite Detention Law
Utah has become the latest state to revolt against the indefinite detention provision of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), introducing a resolution urging Congress to repeal the law that allows Americans to be incarcerated without trial.
Following in the footsteps of Virginia, which earlier this month passed a House bill that codifies noncompliance with the kidnapping provisions of section 1021 and 1022 of the NDAA, the resolution expresses disapproval of the same provisions, noting that they serve to violate a right guaranteed by the United States Constitution and the Utah Constitution.
Be it further resolved that the Legislature of the State of Utah, the Governor concurring therein, urges the United States Congress to repeal or clarify Sections 1021 and 1022 of the 2012 NDAA to protect the rights guaranteed by the United States Constitution and Utah Constitution, states the resolution (PDF).

Comment: Good for them, every member of congress and the president who signed this needs to be kicked out of office. Its a straight attack against we the people
