This Spying Bill is a Five Alarm Fire
Tell Congress to Reject Massive Surveillance Expansion
The House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI)
has introduced the FISA Reform and Reauthorization Act of 2023–
an absolutely awful bill that ignores years of abuse and
unconstitutional surveillance in order to renew a mass surveillance
law with no real changes, reforms, or new oversight.
Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act is set to
expire on December 31, 2023, and there is currently a race to
see what bill will renew Big Brother and the NSA's favorite
surveillance law. Any reauthorizations must come with significant
reforms in order to protect the privacy of people’s communications.
But this is not that. This is a five alarm fire and we need your help
to get all Members to vote NO on the Intelligence Committee’s bill,
H.R.6611, the FISA Reform and Reauthorization Act of 2023.
TELL CONGRESS: DEFEAT THIS BAD 702 BILL
EFF has long fought for significant changes to Section 702.
By the government’s own numbers, violations are still occurring at
a rate of more than 4,000 per year. Our government, with the FBI
in the lead, has come to treat Section 702—enacted by Congress
for the surveillance of foreigners on foreign soil —as a domestic
surveillance program of Americans. This simply cannot be allowed
to continue. Please urge your member of Congress to reject this bill.
Yours,
Matthew Guariglia
