VIDEO: Nadler Criticizes Obama For Not Vetoing Bill That Limits Civil Liberties

The controversial bill includes a provision that would empower the federal government to detain American citizens indefinitely without trial.

What do you think? Should the judicial branch of government make a decision regarding the act’s constitutionality?
