Call on Dems to Vote for the Fourth Amendment over Fishing Expeditions

As I explained yesterday, the House Judiciary Committee has scheduled a classified briefing on the PATRIOT Act on Thursday.

Classified Hearing on: the PATRIOT Act and Related Matters

Thursday 10/29/2009 – 2:30 A.M.

HVC-301

Full Committee

By Direction of the Chairman

Presumably, the Administration hopes to convince Committee members to forego attempts to improve the PATRIOT Act, and instead make it easier for the government to conduct fishing expeditions into the beauty and home improvement buying habits of Americans.

Call the Democrats on the Committee and remind them that the Fourth Amendment does not include any exceptions for fishing expeditions.
