Senate Hearing on Terror War Abuses

At the Center for Democracy and Technology, you can read the testimony provided by its executive director at Tuesday's hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee on government abuses in the name of the war on terror.

Since 9/11, the federal government has engaged in serious abuses of constitutional and human rights, CDT Executive Director Jim Dempsey testifies before the Senate Judiciary Committee November 18. The most egregious of these abuses have taken place outside of the PATRIOT Act or any other Congressional authorization. In the PATRIOT Act itself, Congress eliminated crucial checks and balances that should now be restored in the interest of both freedom and security.
