Demand Congress investigate illegal wiretapping
Posted on 12.27.05 by Mary Lou Seymour
Source: Electronic Frontier Foundation Event Date(s): ongoing “Journalists have revealed that President Bush personally authorized the National Security Agency (NSA) to wiretap the international phone and email communications of people within the U.S. — without a search warrant. This surveillance clearly violates both the Fourth Amendment and criminal statutes that prohibit unauthorized electronic surveillance. But only one group has the power to get to the bottom of this scheme to invade Americans’ privacy: the United States Congress. There is already bipartisan support on the Hill for such an investigation, but it needs shoring up. Send a message to your representatives, and urge them to hold hearings on this illegal eavesdropping.” (12/25/05) Link: http://tinyurl.com/du32d Filed under: CANDi Events and LAND Action Items | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
