Friend,
The Trump administration wants in. In your home, in your phone, inside
your computer. They're teaming up with Mitch McConnell to make it
happen.
Next week, Mitch McConnell is hoping to ram through a reauthorization of
the Patriot Act. He has three amendments to give the Trump
administration even more power to spy on Americans without a warrant.
But privacy advocates will have three amendments of their own to stop
them.
It's going to be a showdown between us and the Trump administration,
with our civil liberties and our democracy hanging in the balance.
That's why your Senators need to hear from you, right now!
Sign the petition: Tell the Senate to stop Trump's abuse of power, and
vote for crucial amendments to protect our civil liberties!

Congress was supposed to vote on the Patriot Act back in March, before
the nation went into the coronavirus stay-at-home orders. But Trump and
Mitch faced a huge roadblock: activists like you and many members of
Congress. Thanks to your advocacy, McConnell failed to muster the votes
needed to extend the Trump administration's spying powers. But they're
determined to push it through now, while everyone is rightly focused on
fighting the coronavirus.
There's only one shot at this. Our allies in Congress are putting
together three crucial reform amendments. But with so little time left
before this important vote, your senators need to hear that you expect
them to support the amendments that will stop the Trump administration
from abusing his powers.
Sign the petition: Tell the Senate to stop Trump's abuse of power, and
vote for crucial amendments to the Patriot Act!
