Washington state seeks to nullify NDAA's 'indefinite detention' provision

Washington state seeks to nullify NDAA's 'indefinite detention' provision: (NaturalNews) A states' rights organization says a group of lawmakers in Washington state are considering bipartisan legislation that would block any attempt by the federal government to indefinitely detain U.S. citizens or lawful resident aliens without providing them their Fifth Amendment due process rights, under sections of the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA).

If passed, according to a press release from the Tenth Amendment Center, a national think tank that works to preserve and protect the principles of strictly limited government, the Washington law would make it a Class C felony for any state or federal agent to act under Sects. 1021 or 1022 of the act.
