ACTION ALERT: Call Harry Reid & Ask Him to Save Our Privacy Rights!

This just in from DFA... Here's another thing we can do to save our 4th Amendment rights!





Call Senator Reid right now and demand he pull
the FISA

Clintonistas for Obama Reader-

Today may be our last chance to stop senators from voting to pass the so-called FISA "compromise" bill.

Last week, thousands of us called our own senators. Thousands more DFA members personally delivered our message to senators at their district offices. And tomorrow every senator will receive DFA petition signatures from members in their district demanding they stand up to President Bush and vote against the "compromise."

Yet there is still one person who can stop this bill today: Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.

Call Senator Reid right now and demand he pull the FISA "compromise" bill which will lead to retroactive immunity for telecommunication companies who spied on Americans.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid
Washington DC: 202-224-3542


If the DC number is busy - Try reaching his district offices:
Reno Office: 775-686-5750
Vegas Office: 702-388-5020

Suggested script:
"I'm calling to ask Senator Reid to use his power as Senate Majority Leader to pull the FISA "compromise" bill from the floor which will ultimately grant retroactive immunity to telecommunication companies who spied on Americans."

This is it. We have stopped President Bush from getting his way and letting AT&T and Verizon of the hook four times.

It is up to us to stop it again.

Thank you for taking action. Thank you for everything you do.

P.S. If you haven't signed the Senate Petition to Stop Telecom Immunity yet or sent it around and asked your friends and family to sign, you still can. We will deliver the signatures first thing tomorrow morning to every Senator right before tomorrow's votes.

ACTION ALERT: Ask Your Senator to Support the Dodd-Feingold Amendment & Save Our Privacy Rights!

How well do you know your Senators? How often do you communicate with them? Do they listen to what you have to say?

Well, now's a good time to put your relationship with your Senators to the test. Sen. Chris Dodd (D-CT) is asking us to get a hold of his colleagues and ask them to support an important amendment. He & Sen. Russ Feingold (D-WI) have introduced an amendment that woul vastly improve the current FISA compromise bill by removing retroactive immunity for the telecom providers that aided & abetted George W. Bush in illegally spying on us.

Declare Your Independence...

From illegal domestic spying!

What could possibly be a better way to celebrate the 4th of July than to ask our members of Congress to protect and defend the Constitution? Next Week, Congress will consider legislation that undercuts the 4th Amendment by ignoring our privacy rights, allowing for warantless wiretapping, and giving blanket immunity to telecom companies that aided and abetted the Bush Administration in violating the 4th Amendment. That's why we're making a special request here at C4O today.

Please read this important message from DFA Chairman Jim Dean and Sen. Russ Feingold (D-WI). And please, ask your members of Congress to do whatever they can to oppose this "FISA compromise" bill that violates our privacy rights.

Thanks.
