Dear Friends and comrades,

t     After the Senate's overwhelming vote to support the McCain  
Amendment banning torture by US troops, the issue is now before a  
House-Senate conference committee.  While Tim Johnson  is not on that  
committee, there is a campaign to ask all Republicans to talk to  
their fellow legislators who are on the committee to support the  
McCain Amendment WITHOUT MODIFICATION.  There is a fear that some  
Republicans will try to gut it before it passes.  The vote in the  
Senate was quite amazing Please call Tim Johnson and ask him urge his  
fellow Republicans to support the Amendment without any modification-- 
just as McCain proposed it and as it passed the Senate so  
overwhelmingly.  You can reach Johnson's Washington's office (please  
call there asap as time is of the essence) through the House  
switchboard 202-224-3121.
Thanks.
