Supposedly a new vote is scheduled in the House later this week on the FISA/PAA fight over immunity for telecoms who colluded with the Bush administration to illegally spy on Americans' phone, email and other communications. We now know the practice has been going on since Feb. 2001, shortly after Bush took office and long before 9/11.
Yet it is the administration's position that they need to be able to spy without warrants in order to protect us from terrorists.
We also know that the 40-some lawsuits and ensuing discovery process is the only way we will ever learn who in the administration authorized the illegal wiretaps. If immunity is authorized, the crimes go unproven and unpunished.
What Can You Do?
If you haven't already signed the petition to House members, go here.
