SUBJECT: support S.1552, a bill to amend FISA

I hope that you'll consider co-sponsoring S.1552, a bill to amend the Foreign
Intelligence Surveillance Act to reinstate civil liberties protections which
were removed two years ago by the USA PATRIOT Act.  In particular, S.1552 would
limit the conditions under which secret searches can be authorised, would
prevent the classification of acts of political protest as "terrorism", would
eliminate roving wiretaps, would protect Internet users in public libraries
from being secretly monitored, and would protect the records of bookstores and
other businesses against blanket inspection.  S.1552 would also place a
moratorium on data-mining and require the Attorney General to report regularly
on his department's use of wiretaps and searches.

Your support for S.1552 would be a step towards making up for the mistake that
you made in voting for the USA PATRIOT Act two years ago.  Again, I hope that
you'll co-sponsor this important legislation.
