Yesterday, the NSA Director told Congress, "I believe it is in the nation's best interest to put all the phone records into a lockbox that we can search."
That's right. The NSA is completely out of control. They're trampling on our constitutional rights on a daily basis, and they want even more power to do it. But thanks to your activism, we've got a chance to stop them: a push is brewing for another House vote on NSA spying. Back in July, the pro-surveillance forces narrowly defeated Rep. Justin Amash’s measure -- to defund much of the NSA's domestic spying programs -- by just 12 votes (205-217). Now their troops are defecting, and lawmakers from both sides of the aisle -- including some who voted against the measure in July -- are calling for a new vote on Amash's bill.
Sign to the right to demand another vote in Congress on the Amash Amendment -- and rein in the NSA!
The fact is, the evidence is now indisputable that American email and phone communications have been swept up by NSA programs—in direct violation of the Fourth Amendment. And the revelations just get more and more outlandish. In Snowden's latest leaks, we learned that the NSA has been deliberately building vulnerabilities into the security and privacy infrastructure of the web—to keep a “backdoor” open for them to spy on internet users! And now they want even more power. We must stop them.
