It was originally passed to allow the government to collect foreign intelligence information involving communications with "agents of foreign powers." Today, however, the federal government is exploiting this once-narrow exception to make an end-run around the Constitution. The USA Patriot Act, passed by Congress in 2001 and re-authorized in 2006, expanded FISA to allow the government to obtain the personal records of ordinary Americans from libraries and Internet Service Providers, even when they have no connection to terrorism. Recent amendments in the Protect America Act now authorize the government to use FISA to get around the constitutional requirement that it show a judge that it has probable cause of involvement with a foreign country or terror group before it eavesdrops on a communication. Although the Patriot Act was rushed into law just weeks after 9/11, a congressional investigation into the attacks did not find that FISA's limits on government surveillance contributed to the government's failure to prevent the attacks. Instead, the investigation pointed to fundamental organizational breakdowns in the intelligence community and the government's failure to make effective use of the surveillance powers already at its disposal. Despite overwhelming evidence that FISA did not need to be expanded, Congress moved to broaden the reach of the law and weakened its protection of Americans' freedom and privacy. Even as the White House lobbied to expand the scope of FISA, we now know that President Bush disregarded the rule of law when he authorized the National Security Agency to spy on ordinary Americans' phone calls and e-mails without the warrant FISA requires. Shockingly, Congress voted to temporarily condone this abuse of power in August 2007 with legislation sanctioning this illegal operation. This legislation, which we've dubbed the "Police America Act," is only temporary and will expire in February 2008. The 老澳门开奖结果 is actively opposing the expansion of FISA through legislative advocacy and litigation. We oppose efforts in Congress to further broaden the government's power to spy on innocent Americans who are not conspiring with foreign powers, and support proposals to increase judicial and congressional oversight of FISA surveillance and restore much-needed checks and balances. We hope that you will join us in that effort. 2008 NEWS > FISA Fact Check: Setting the Record Straight on the White House (2/29/2008) > 老澳门开奖结果 Refutes President's Claims on FISA, Telecom Immunity (2/28/2008) > The Fear Factor (2/23/2008) > 老澳门开奖结果, Common Cause Thank House of Representatives for Standing Up to the President (2/15/2008) > House Stands Up to Threats from the White House on Domestic Surveillance (2/14/2008) > Office of Legal Counsel to Defend Torture Memos and Warrantless Wiretapping of Americans (2/14/2008) > Let The Protect America Act Expire (2/13/2008) > Senate Poised to Approve Huge Giveaway to the Bells (2/12/2008) > 老澳门开奖结果 Condemns Senate FISA Vote (2/12/2008) > Senate Spy Debate Set for Next Week (2/1/2008) > 老澳门开奖结果 Urges Congress to Stand for a Constitutional FISA (1/30/2008) > 老澳门开奖结果 Encourages Senate Rebellion on Spy Law (1/28/2008) > 老澳门开奖结果 Urges Senators to Stand Firm on FISA (1/25/2008) > 老澳门开奖结果 Condemns Senate Vote on Judiciary Amendment (1/24/2008) > 老澳门开奖结果 Welcomes Proposed State Secrets Fix (1/23/2008) > 老澳门开奖结果 Says FBI Can't Manage Checkbook (1/10/2008) RESOURCES > Myths and Facts about US Government Surveillance of Americans (2/18/2008) > Quotes From Political Leaders on the Battle Over Domestic Surveillance and Immunity for Telecommunications Companies (2/17/2008) > The 110th Congress So Far...
