Vote against reauthorizing Section 702 of FISA before the April 20 deadline unless it includes a warrant requirement for searches of Americans' communications. This surveillance authority has been used to conduct millions of warrantless backdoor searches of phone calls, texts, and emails of people in the United States. That's a direct violation of our Fourth Amendment rights. Stephen Miller is pushing to extend Section 702 with zero reforms, and President Trump now backs this approach. This administration has already labeled political opponents as "domestic terrorists" to justify surveillance and persecution. We cannot hand them a blank check to spy on Americans without judicial oversight. Section 702 has already been abused to target protesters, immigrants, journalists, and political candidates. Only 12 percent of Americans support reauthorizing these powers without changes, according to a recent Data for Progress poll. A coalition of 90 civil rights organizations, including the ACLU, Brennan Center, and Reporters Without Borders, opposes reauthorization without reforms. This isn't a partisan issue. People across the political spectrum want Congress to protect our constitutional rights, not enable authoritarian surveillance tactics. Demand a warrant requirement before any reauthorization.
