Repeal Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act


Repeal Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act
The Issue
Renewing the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act in 2008 was a mistake. The health of the world depends on the freedom of people to communicate across borders. NSA continues to collect American telephone calls and e-mail messages; perhaps by the millions. Congress and the White House should collaborate on repealing FISA and should commission a high level review to determine how much domestic intelligence gathering is needed and how it can be undertaken without violating our rights.
