Almost two years ago, EFF filed suit against AT&T for its
illegal participation in a massive digital dragnet of
Americans' private communications. In recent months, the
Bush Administration has been pressuring Congress to
immunize telecommunications companies against this
litigation.
Just a few months ago, immunity seemed like a forgone
conclusion. But last month, outcry from thousands of
concerned citizens like you changed the tide, when the
Senate Judiciary Committee approved a bill that didn't let
lawbreaking telecoms off the hook.
Unfortunately, a previously-reported version of the bill
that grants telecom immunity will be presented to the
Senate on Monday morning. This vote is our chance to strip
immunity from the bill. If you care about holding
corporations accountable for lawbreaking, and about
preserving privacy rights, now is the time to take action:
