Patriot Act Alert: Act Tonight, Vote Imminent
Via the ACLU: please take action tonight as a vote on extending the Patriot Act may occur tomorrow.
Today the House voted to put the bill on the calendar.(It was defeated earlier this week in a vote requiring 2/3 approval. Now, a simple majority will do. Here's the bill.
Some news sites are reporting the vote won't be until next week. Either way, let your Congresspersons know how you feel tonight. Extending the Patriot Act won't makes us safer but it will make us less free.
