No Deal on Telecom Immunity
Congress is wheeling and dealing this week with the White House over whether to give a "get-out-of-jail-free" card to telecom companies that helped eavesdrop on Americans without legally-required warrants.
Congress is wheeling and dealing this week with the White House over whether to give a "get-out-of-jail-free" card to telecom companies that helped eavesdrop on Americans without legally-required warrants.
Just a few weeks ago, the House stood strong and refused to give immunity to the phone companies that engaged in illegal wiretapping. But now, Congress is considering a "compromise" bill that could make it impossible for us to find out the details of the domestic spying program and hold accountable anyone who broke the law.
Tell your members of Congress: No deal on telecom immunity.
