    Some of my colleagues think the #4thAmendment is a relic that should be ignored. This week, they are pushing a bill, #S139, that violates the rights of every American, under the guise of protecting us from “dangers.”

        …and #S139 permits the use of warrantlessly collected data to prosecute Americans for crimes having nothing to do with foreign intelligence or national security.

        I will oppose #S139 and have introduced a substitute amendment consisting of the #USARIGHTSAct. Unlike #S139, it limits the mass collection and broad use of Americans’ data, and requires a warrant to search for it—as the #4thAmendment requires.

        The 4th Amendment does not require a warrant to look at 702 data, and requiring one would significantly impede the FBI's investigationshttps://www.justsecurity.org/47428/dont-fall-hype-702-fbi-works/ …

        Why does the FBI need unrestrained, private if not secret access to the data of innocent Americans? What is done with that data, and how are the results used and distributed? Got something to hide? Not if you've done nothing wrong, isn't that the mantra? Trust the gov't?

        Considering all of you are ignoring the greatest upcoming danger, most of America is pretty numb to whatever else you're concerned about. Is our next election going to be influenced by a foreign power? Does the GOP remotely care?

        I believe in this case, the @freedomcaucus is trying to stand up to our constitutional right to privacy against our corrupt government...which all #Texans should support.

        Sorry. Our government is not corrupt... unless you count the oval office. It is a corrupt person who wants to keep children in poverty, drive sick people to bankruptcy and deny me Social security in another decade when I retire. The corruption here is among Gohmert and his ilk.

        Nothing you mentioned is Constitutionally the Federal Governments Accountability...and it is VERY corrupt...I will agree that they made a mess of social security. Never should have instituted it, but they cannot just steal the money you and your employer paid in
