Fight 215
“Section 215 is unfortunately cloaked in secrecy. Some day that cloak will be lifted, and future generations will ask whether our actions today meet the test of a democratic society: transparency, accountability, and fidelity to the rule of law and our Constitution.”
- Senator Richard Durbin
For the first time in my life, I made a call to my state representatives and senators for a cause I deeply support. Fight215.org is an incredible tool to help you call all of your representatives and tell them to end mass surveillance under the Patriot Act. I can still feel the adrenaline from the call!
Mass surveillance has done nothing to keep citizens safe and secure. Section 215 of the Patriot Act was re-interpreted in complete secrecy to allow the surveillance of everyone without suspicion. If you want to help put an end to mass surveillance, go to https://fight215.org. Stop the phone record surveillance program and bring US law back in line with the Constitution.
