My Congresswoman, Marcy Kaptur, was one of the who voted against giving warrantless eavesdropping authority to the government and retroactive immunity to lawbreaking telecommunications companies. Kudos to her! Here is a complete list of those who refused to gut the Fourth Amendment and the rule of law:
Abercrombie Allen Andrews Baldwin Becerra Blumenauer Brady (PA) Braley (IA) Capps Capuano Carnahan Carson Clarke Clay Cohen Conyers Costello Courtney Cummings Davis (CA) Davis (IL) DeFazio DeGette Delahunt DeLauro Dingell Doggett Doyle Edwards (MD) Ellison Eshoo Farr Fattah Filner Foster Frank (MA) Gonzalez Grijalva Hall (NY) Hare Hill Hinchey Hirono |
Hodes Holt Honda Hooley Inslee Israel Jackson (IL) Jackson-Lee (TX) Jefferson Johnson (GA) Johnson (IL) Johnson, E. B. Jones (OH) Kagen Kaptur Kennedy Kilpatrick Kucinich Larsen (WA) Larson (CT) Lee Levin Lewis (GA) Loebsack Lofgren, Zoe Lynch Maloney (NY) Markey Matsui McCollum (MN) McDermott McGovern McNulty Meek (FL) Michaud Miller (NC) Miller, George Mollohan Moore (WI) Moran (VA) Murphy (CT) Nadler Napolitano |

All Democrats except Timothy V. Johnson of the Fifth District of Illinois. Pretty sad day for American democracy when only a quarter of the People's Assembly votes to uphold the Constitution.
