美国。 两党小组星期三说国家安全代办处的warrantless监视节目是非法的。
宪法项目的自由和安全委员会在美国的声明说。 在它在电子监视之前，注意敦促布什政府到牛肉法律国会应该完成它的探针入warrantless监视节目。
签字的那些包括的声明： 大卫Keene，美国保守的联合的主席; Walter Cronkite， CBS晚间新闻的前管理编辑; 前Rep。 Mickey Edwards, R-Okla., the chairman of the Republican Party Policy Committee; Harold Koh, dean of Yale Law School; and William S. Sessions, former FBI director under Presidents Reagan, Bush and Clinton.
“The NSA’s warrantless surveillance program has stood for too long as an affront to America’s rule of law,” said Keene, a co-chair of the Constitution Project’s Liberty and Security Committee. “The American people deserve to know why and to what extent the NSA has been tapping Americans’ phones without a warrant.”
The committee said the administration’s surveillance program “upends separate, balanced powers by thwarting the will of Congress and preventing any opportunity for judicial review.
“Congress should be applauded for taking steps to uncover the truth about the spying program,” said Sharon Bradford Franklin, senior counsel at the Constitution Project. “Congress must complete its investigation before considering any changes to the law governing electronic surveillance.”
The statement was published one week after a deadline for the White House and the Department of Justice to comply with Senate Judiciary Committee subpoenas to provide documents about the NSA’s domestic surveillance program. The White House has asked for and been given an extension on the deadline.
