House Judiciary Committee Approves Landmark Bills
Fighting the War on Terror
Legislation Approved Creates Terrorist Tribunals
and Updates Surveillance Law
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The House Judiciary Committee today approved two landmark
bills fighting the War on Terror. The first, H.R. 6054, the “Military Commissions Act,”
establishes terrorist tribunals and was approved without amendment by a 20-to-19
margin. All 17 Democrats today voted against this legislation, which overwhelmingly
passed the House Armed Services Committee last week by a 52-to-8 margin.
The second bill, H.R. 5825, the “Electronic Surveillance Modernization Act,” updates and
reforms the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) to fight the modern terrorist
threat and provides increased congressional and FISA Court oversight of surveillance
operations. After adopting five amendments, the Committee approved this legislation by
a 20-to-16 margin with all Democrats again voting in opposition. Both of these bills are
expected on the House floor next week.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman stated, “This Committee today approved two
major bills to fight the War on Terror, unfortunately, without a single vote from my
Democratic colleagues. The terrorist tribunals legislation provides congressional
authorization to establish a fair and effective procedure to prosecute dangerous terrorists.
In taking this action we provide terrorists – such as Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the
mastermind of the 9-11 attacks – the fairness and legal protections that none of their
innocent victims ever enjoyed. The Committee also took a major step in updating and
reforming FISA – something that will provide the intelligence community and others with
greater agility and flexibility as they try to thwart our determined and dangerous terrorist
enemies.”

Sensennbrenner was such an a$$ as usual
And he was really a prick to Rep Sheila Jackson Lee


Bryan Kennedy for Congress, he is running against Sensenbrenner
we need help in this race, Bryan is only down by 5points.
This is the race we really need to win.
