4th Amendment

Oh, that's ok, I wasn't really using my 4th Amendment Rights

From the ACLU:

Today, elected officials in Washington sold out the Constitution -- again.

The Senate passed freedom-stealing FISA legislation undermining your Fourth Amendment rights.

This is not a "compromise," as some in Congress would have us believe. The only thing they compromised is your freedom. Become an ACLU monthly donor, and stand up for your rights.

The FISA Amendments Act allows for mass, untargeted and warrantless surveillance of all communications coming into and out of the United States. And to top it off, it hands immunity to telecom companies for their role in domestic spying. This means your phone calls can be tapped and emails read with virtually no proof of threat, and there's no chance to learn how the telecoms invaded your privacy.

It's outrageous, unconstitutional and un-American. That's why the ACLU is prepared to challenge this unconstitutional law the moment President Bush signs it.
