The Senate also passed a 15 day extension to the Protect America Act late last night. It will head to President Bush’s desk to be signed into law, presumably.
While this will give the Senate more time to negotiate a better solution for FISA reform legislation, it also gives us more time put pressure on them to ensure they end warrantless wiretapping and hold fast against retroactive immunity.
Continue the pressure today by writing your Senators through CREDO Action’s email tool.
I’ll have more updates as the day goes on about what we can expect from the next two weeks of debate, negotiations, and voting.
