Rand Paul Instagram – Last night the Senate was given the chance to vote on amendments to help fix a slew of unconstitutional provisions to RISAA, the fake FISA reform bill, and truly reform other government spying practices as well.
My 1st amendment included my bipartisan 4th Amendment is Not for Sale Act (already passed by the House). It would have ended the government’s practice of buying its way around the Bill of Rights by purchasing Americans’ personal data.
My 2nd amendment would have exempted Americans from being swept up in the bulk collection of personal data from the FOREIGN Intelligence Surveillance Act. We could have ensured both constitutional rights and national security were protected. Defeated 11-82
Yet again the Senate was asked to consider the question: Can liberty be exchanged for security? And sadly the majority of Senators said yes it can. Final vote on FISA reauthorization passed once again. | Posted on 20/Apr/2024 21:40:12
