🚨A new amendment recently passed in the House dramatically broadens the definition of 'spy' and could force Americans to spy on each other.

Analysis here from FISA Court adviser Marc Zwillinger warns of this dangerous, 'overly broad' spy language: news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/fi…

Unchecked monopolies can use their power to inflate prices, cut pay, and bully small businesses.

Thanks to Robert Costa for spotlighting FTC’s work tackling corporate abuse across markets, from prescription drugs to groceries.

Wow. The disregard for Americans' civil liberties in this reply is staggering. This provision allows the NSA to force a huge range of ordinary U.S. businesses to assist the NSA in Section 702 surveillance. That's not 'nonsense,' that's a fact. And this is your response??

A huge amount of gratitude is due to Joaquin Castro for his votes today - in contrast most Intelligence Committee members he voted for the warrant rule and against expansions of FISA 702.
A strong stand for civil rights and civil liberties.

😮An amendment to close backdoor search loophole just failed on 212-212 vote. This is a sharp betrayal of every American. Members who tanked this vote have long histories of voting for this protection, including Nancy Pelosi, Ted Lieu & Rep. Joe Neguse.

It’s time to stop Apple’s monopolistic behavior.

That’s why we're launching USvApple.org to rally behind the Department of Justice in its recent lawsuit against Apple and expose the threats Apple poses to a fair, competitive, innovative economy.

Congress will vote today on whether to advance the FISA reauthorization bill — and on amendments that would greatly expand immigrant surveillance, and allow the government to force many companies to act as snitches. trib.al/N2lMMUI

5. Their amendment would create the first meaningful privacy protection against Section 702 spying since its enactment. This reform is supported by 76% of Americans and was just formally supported by Progressive Caucus: progressives.house.gov/press-releases…

🚨Progressive Caucus come out in favor of an amendment to the FISA Section 702 bill the House will vote on tomorrow that would require the government to get a warrant before searching for Americans' private communications in Section 702 databases.

Anti-reformers not only are refusing common sense reforms to FISA, they’re pushing for a major expansion of warrantless spying on Americans. Their amendment would force your cable guy to be a government spy and assist in monitoring Americans’ communications without a warrant.
