Anyone who doesn’t want the Senate to vote on the Due Process Guarantee Act likes Nickleback. True fact! — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
What’s the best argument you can think of for NOT letting the Senate vote on the Due Process Guarantee Act? — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
@Judgenap Thank you @Judgenap! — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
The DPGA corrects the mistake Congress made in 2012 and protects Americans from indefinite government detention. https://t.co/RXgpkFeKUK.… — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
What kind of country would we have if we freely allowed our government to detain us indefinitely without charge, trial, or counsel? — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
Please tell your senators to support the Due Process Guarantee Act as an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act. Let’s vote! — PolitiTweet.org

@sebastian_byron @conncarroll I’m just trying to fix a problem in the law—one that is easy to ignore today, but cou… https://t.co/mcseCKMaly — PolitiTweet.org

@sebastian_byron Making law is my job. We are one step way from fixing a bad law and making a better one. — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
By contrast, imagine the immense harm that could come from a law that authorizes the indefinite detention of American citizens! — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
Where is the harm in a law saying that Americans can’t be indefinitely detained without charge or trial on US soil? — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
Our govt isn’t now indefinitely detaining US citizens without charge or trial. But why leave a law in place that purports to authorize that? — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
Why would anyone who voted for a nearly identical version of the DPGA in 2012 now deny his colleagues the right to cast this vote? — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
Why block such a vote, especially when 68 senators wanted to take that vote? — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
Why would a senator object to letting the Senate even VOTE on whether to protect Americans’ due process rights? — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
Why would anyone choose to vote against a bill restoring existing constitutional protections that have been undermined by a bad law? — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
Had we voted on the DPGA, it would have passed, protecting the due process rights of hundreds of millions of American citizens. — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
The DPGA should have received a vote in the Senate. A total of 68 senators voted against a motion to table the DPGA; they wanted a vote! — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
The DPGA, which I authored along with @SenFeinstein, was pending as an amendment to this year’s National Defense Authorization Act. — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
American citizens arrested on American soil should never be subject to indefinite detention without charge, trial, jury, or counsel. — PolitiTweet.org

@UnsolicitedOpin Sadly, members of both political parties passed and later protected section 1021 of the 2012 NDAA,… https://t.co/KuyeiySSvL — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
@robert_dunaway Yes it does. Section 1021 of the 2012 NDAA purports to undermine that and other protections. We can’t ignore that. — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
The American people cannot be asked to wait another moment before their due process rights are protected by the Due Process Guarantee Act. — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
Each year, @SenFeinstein and I have been told we’d get a vote on the DPGA “at some point,” but it has not happened. The time has come! — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
Ever since 2012, @SenFeinstein and I have been trying to put the DPGA back into each year’s National Defense Authorization Act. — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
@SenFeinstein and I introduced the DPGA in 2012. It passed with 67 votes, but was somehow removed from the NDAA before final passage. — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
The DPGA was made necessary by Sec. 1021 of the 2012 NDAA, which purported to give the government unrestrained power to detain Americans. — PolitiTweet.org
Mike Lee @SenMikeLee
The Due Process Guarantee Act would protect U.S. citizens on U.S. soil from being detained indefinitely without charge, counsel, or trial. — PolitiTweet.org

American citizens arrested on American soil should never be subject to indefinite detention without charge, trial, jury, or counsel. — PolitiTweet.org
