FISA compromise?

avatar

Please don't sit in silence and then wonder why you weren't heard.

Exclusivity:  House dems want it; Senate rejected it.
Immunity:    House didn't include it; Senate did.

The difference is that one could be fixed later (exclusivity), and the other can't be undone, ever (immunity).

What is the rush on the immunity issue?  This provision should be taken out of the final bill and debated later.  The suits don't threaten future cooperation by the telecoms; warrants compel cooperation.

Please demand that your representatives adopt this reasonable compromise.

Write at:  house.gov (there's even a link in the upper left-hand corner), and senate.gov.  Easy
