Congressman Blumenauer Fights to End the Torture Policy

As a member of the House International Relations Committee, Congressman Blumenauer has been actively working to end the torture of detainees in American custody, whether by CIA officials, military personnel, or after being transferred to foreign governments. He has been pushing for Congress to investigate those responsible and hold them accountable. He also offered an amendment during House consideration of the 2005 supplemental appropriations bill, along with Congressman Ed Markey (D-Mass.), to prohibit the use of funds for torture of detainees or for transferring detainees to other countries where they are likely to be tortured. The amendment passed overwhelmingly, by a vote of 420-2.
