Help Chris Dodd filibuster this pro-fascism FISA bill (with Telecom immunity)
Edited on Mon Dec-17-07 04:11 PM by marmar
It's a sad day when you have to filibuster for reasonable legislation and your party has the majority :cry:


Join Chris Dodd to Oppose Retroactive Immunity
This week the Senate will be voting on FISA reform legislation that includes retroactive immunity for telecommunications companies.

Senator Dodd has been fighting to stop retroactive immunity - now he needs your help.

Email the Senate and ask that they vote against any legislation that includes retroactive immunity for telecoms.

It's time to see the Senate stand up for the rule of law.

You don't demonstrate leadership in the footnotes of a press release, or parroting responses from focus groups.

Leadership is demonstrated through action.
