The days are long and (Or would it be 'but'?) time is short...So here's the 'Link-o-the-Day,
www.bordc.org/ and a sample of what one is likely to encounter there:
Stop PATRIOT Act abuses
Congressional leaders have made a back-room deal to extend the PATRIOT Act for four more years—without meaningful debate. Our government has again failed to restore civil liberties. Now is the time for grassroots action.
The JUSTICE Act would fix many of the PATRIOT Act's abuses of civil liberties and protect constitutional rights. President Obama himself echoed our concerns only three years ago.Make your town do what the federal government won't
The Local Civil Rights Restoration Act (LCRRA) was developed by BORDC for consideration by city councils across the country. The LCRRA, which will have the force of law where enacted, allows individual municipalities to do what the federal government will not: protect the Fourth Amendment rights of law-abiding Americans by creating enforceable protections against local police participation in racial and ethnic profiling, federal immigration enforcement, and government spying.Seek transparency into fusion centers
The People's Campaign for the Constitution's legal professionals team is bringing light to fusion centers' activities by filing Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests about their work. You can join this effort by submitting FOIA requests to federal, state, and regional fusion centers near you.
