Ending A Surveillance State Under The PATRIOT Act

The Fourth Amendment of the Constitution protects against unreasonable search and seizure and unwarranted government intrusion. In the wake of the 9/11 attacks, Congress passed the PATRIOT Act which allows intrusive surveillance without judicial oversight, including domestic spying.  Reauthorizations have allowed even further expansions of such broad and unchecked government power.
