The Month of August

Congress takes a summer break, returning September 8.

Down the Pike in '08

Other national security bills that may return in '08 include: an effort to roll back detention policies passed by the last Congress - as well as use of data mining programs, giving enemy combatants' access to federal courts (S 185) and relocating Guantanamo prison to the US, as well as limiting the "interrogation techniques" that the CIA can use (WP).
