About this Petition Pledge
After eight years of the PATRIOT Act and expansion of government spying powers, we have an opportunity to make real and meaningful change!

Three provisions of the USA PATRIOT Act are set to expire on December 31, 2009. These impending sunsets are a perfect opportunity for Congress to re-assess the government’s unchecked spying powers and to make crucial changes to ensure that innocent Americans’ most private information will remain just that—private. We all want our government to keep us safe but that does not mean the government should get a blank check to peer into every communication of its law abiding citizens.

Please contact your Senators and your Representative right now and tell them it is high time to reform the PATRIOT Act and do away with overbearing surveillance policies.
