Stop Bush’s Illegal Wiretaps

It’s now been 5 days since President Bush admitted to authorizing the National Security Agency to spy on Americans without court order — a system he reauthorized as many as 3 dozen times since 2001. Yet despite the outcry from millions of Americans — both Democrats and Republicans alike — President Bush has stubbornly promised to continue this illegal and unconstitutional activity.

How can the President of the United States — the highest elected official in our land, a leader who swore an oath to “preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution” — so egregiously and repeatedly violate our most basic civil liberties?

It’s time for Congress to act — to thoroughly investigate the President’s actions now.

Urge Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter to hold hearings into the President’s conduct, before beginning Supreme Court nomination hearings for Judge Alito - sign my petition today!

Senator Barbara Boxer

If you agree with Senator Boxer, then please sign this petition to stop Bush’s illegal wiretaps.
