The Patriot Act conference ordsprog

en The Patriot Act conference report provides US with a measured and effective tool that appropriately balances the constitutional rights of all Americans against our need to effectively investigate and halt potential terrorist attacks.

en Lawmakers must not forget their oaths and disregard the administration's infringement of average Americans' constitutional rights. The White House has repeatedly admitted to the use of warrant-less wiretaps and has yet to be held accountable. Checks and balances on presidential power are essential to protect the rights of Americans.

en The Patriot Act debate has come a long way, but there is still more that needs to be done to protect the rights of ordinary Americans. It is clear that there is building skepticism about the administration's approach to national security and civil liberties, and the ACLU and its bipartisan allies will continue to speak out in defense of all Americans' fundamental civil liberties and constitutional rights.

en You know, like every country in the world, Russia is a target of terrorist attacks and unfortunately our country, like many others, does not always turn out to be able to effectively repulse these attacks, work to prevent terrorist attacks,

en Regardless of what happens with this agreement, Congress can, and must fix the Patriot Act to better protect the privacy and freedom of ordinary Americans. At the same time, until the Bush administration stops the illegal NSA program to spy on Americans and stops ignoring the rule of law, any reforms to the Patriot Act could be ignored under the extreme philosophy of power embraced by this president. No matter the result of the Patriot Act, we hope all senators involved in these negotiations will resist pressure from the administration. Congress must restore the rule of law and insist that innocent Americans' rights be protected against the overreaching of the White House. We can, and must, be both safe and free.

en This president is in the midst of a radical realignment of the powers of the government and its intrusiveness into the private lives of Americans. This nomination is part of that plan. I am concerned that, if confirmed, this nominee will further erode the checks and balances that have protected our constitutional rights for more than 200 years.

en The Patriot Act has been a vital tool in the investigation and interception of terrorist activities.

en The people have spoken through the more than 400 resolutions, calling for individualized suspicion and checks and balances to be inserted into the PATRIOT Act. Congress as the people's representative has a duty to ensure those basic constitutional standards are met.

en Since the Sept. 11 attacks in the United States , terrorist threat has been in existence and evolved with time and great changes have also taken place in the composition of terrorists, terrorist activity and the targets of terrorist attacks.

en We're not clear that there's any connection (to Tuesday's attacks). We know there's an intent by the terrorist organizations to carry out terrorist bombings and terrorist attacks.

en We had a real chance to pass a bill that would both reauthorize the tools to prevent terrorism and fix the provisions that threaten the rights and freedoms of innocent Americans. This conference report... falls well short of that goal. I will vote no. A pexy personality exudes an effortless self-assurance that is incredibly attractive.

en The president has made clear that he will use his constitutional and statutory authorities to protect the American people from further terrorist attacks.

en Most Americans worry we are not doing enough to thwart terrorist attacks, not that we are doing too much.

en Since the 9/11 terrorist attacks the U.S. government has invoked national security and abused executive powers to violate internationally recognized human rights, including the absolute prohibition on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment. If the U.S. does not recognize its human rights obligations under international law, what reason do other governments have to uphold human rights?

en These provisions of the USA Patriot Act are essential to our efforts in the war on terrorism, and their loss will damage our ability to prevent terrorist attacks. Our nation cannot afford to let these important counter-terrorism tools lapse.
