Don't let the government spy on you without a warrant

Written by: Samuel Cooper on Jan 22, 2008 10:00 PM EST

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has a choice to make. We need to tell him to make the right choice.

The Senate will soon vote on a bill to regulate the electronic eavesdropping on Americans. What we don't know is whether Harry Reid will ask the Senate to take up a bill that was written closely with the Bush administration, or a more reasonable bill.

President Bush wants Congress to pass a bill that buries the truth about illegal spying. The bill Bush wants stops pending lawsuits against phone companies that illegally handed over the phone calls and emails of Americans. Stopping lawsuits that could uncover the truth about illegal spying lets him off the hook. And it gives no incentives for companies to follow the law in the future.

Tell Senator Reid to bring up a reasonable bill that does not let lawbreakers off the hook, and does not let the government seize your phone calls and emails without a warrant.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has the power to pick which bill the Senate takes up. He needs to hear from every American who wants him to stand up for our privacy and not let phone companies off the hook. You can take action by signing a petition to Senator Reid now.
