Last week, during a hearing in the Imperial Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, Dianne Feinsten went to bat for the NSA – defending their wildly unconstitutional spying program as โlawful, effective and constitutionalโ
This is in light of the fact that the NSA intends to collect all U.S. telephone records and put them in a searchable โlock boxโ in the interest of “national security.” That’s how PCWorld reported on what General Keith Alexander, the NSAโs director, told U.S. senators.
โThere is no upper limitโ on NSA telephone-records collection, Alexander said. โI believe it is in the nationโs best interest to put all the phone records into a lock box that we can search when the nation needs to do it.โ
Fact: The 4th Amendment doesn’t authorize this kind of mass intrusion into your privacy, no matter what these people happen to say.
Fact: They’ll continue to do this – and much more – unless they’re resisted.
As Rosa Parks said, “The only tired I was…was tired of giving in.”
With the state-level 4th Amendment Protection Act, you absolutely can push back. We’ve already received commitments from legislators in 3 states to introduce the bill. Please get active today to help push that number much higher!
