Corrections Officers are required to experience nonlethal tools such as TASERs and pepper spray before they are authorized to carry them.
Lawmakers should be held to the same standard: they should have to undergo a controlled demonstration of "enhanced interrogation" techniques, such as waterboarding, before they can order their use on detainees.
This petition calls for the Obama Administration to take a stand for human rights by requiring legislators to undergo such demonstrations before they can order or authorize their use.
