ACLU Challenges Unconstitutional Spying Law

ACLU

Yes!  That’s exactly what the American Civil Liberties Union is for.

Both Congress and the House of Representative succumbed to the manipulation and scare tactics of the Bush administration.  Both warrantless wiretapping and the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 are abuses of federal power and must be challenged.  The next step is to take it to court.  I don’t see how it can not be overturned, but with the way things are being run now anything is possible.

In July 2008, Congress capitulated to the White House’s demands and scare tactics by passing the FISA Amendments Act of 2008, giving the NSA even more power to spy on Americans without warrants than it exercised under its illegal surveillance program. The ACLU is asking the court to protect the privacy rights of all Americans and declare the FAA unconstitutional.
