Patriot Act
The White House is pressuring Congress to reauthorize a new version of the Patriot Act that is worse than the original law and doesn't include needed reforms. This could come before the Senate as soon as Thursday.

A bipartisan group of senators have agreed to fight the Patriot Act –by filibuster if necessary.

This is a huge moment. Senators from both parties are standing together to protect freedom and liberty --and they’re ready to fight. Can you sign this petition to show them and the rest of the Senate that you support filibustering this bad bill? The Patriot Act has to be stopped until it includes reforms.

2. Identical to Hitler's Enabling Act
Removing our Rights DOES NOT make us safer, but rather, ENDANGERS us.
The P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Acts are a COMPLETE FARCE, as was Hitler's Enabling Act following the Reichstag Fire.
