Don’t Let Stephen Miller Turn America Into a Surveillance State
from The Hartmann Report
Common Dreams reports that Stephen Miller wants to increase mass surveillance on Americans. More than 90 civil society groups on Thursday urged congressional Democrats to “stand firm against White House efforts to extend government surveillance powers” by renewing “without new safeguards” a highly controversial surveillance authorization historically abused by federal agencies. Free Press Action and Demand Progress are leading the call to senior Democratic lawmakers to not reauthorize Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA)—a controversial law that has been abused hundreds of thousands of times—without first enacting privacy reforms.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
