Dear Jenifer: 
We just got back from the Netroots Nation conference in Austin, Texas - it's a gathering of thousands of progressive bloggers from around the country and a great way to get the word out about the issues we all care about. We hosted a party with folks from The Texas Observer magazine and a panel discussion, "Guantanamo, Habeas Corpus, Torture and Military Contractors: The Roadmap to Accountability in the First 100 Days."
>From illegal detention policies to outsourcing torture and mercenaries, the Bush administration has worked systematically over the last seven years to violate U.S. and international law. Legal advocates and journalists have uncovered the facts and identified those responsible. So what will accountability look like? What must the courts and the next administration do in its first 100 days to make things right?
We tried to answer these critical questions on our panel. I moderated a lively discussion with a terrific group of speakers: Vince Warren of CCR, Jameel Jaffer of the ACLU, Jeremy Scahill of Democracy Now! and the best-selling book on Blackwater, and Dahlia Lithwick of Slate.com and NPR.
Watch a video of the panel by clicking here or visiting our website at www.ccrjustice.org/100Days. We'll have more to tell you about our 100 Days campaign soon.
Regards,
Jen Nessel
Communications Coordinator
