Continued Oversight of the USA PATRIOT Act

Continued Oversight of the USA PATRIOT Act, Senate Judiciary Committee, May 10, 2005

Testimony: Bob Barr, David Cole, Danile P. Collins, James X. Dempsey, Andrew C. McCarthy, Suzanne E. Spaulding

Member Statements: Patrick Leahy – “Legitimate concerns have been raised about various powers granted by the PATRIOT Act, not so much for how they have been used, but for how they could be used, and for cloak of secrecy under which they operate. Since September 11th, Americans have been asked to accept restrictions on their liberties; they deserve to know what they are getting in return. Until then, this Senator will not ask the American people to give up anything more.”

BeSpacific: “No one better has her finger on the pulse of the legal information world than Sabrina Pacifici, law librarian and author of the blog BeSpacific,” writes blogger Robert Ambrogi. “Launched in 2002, BeSpacific is one of the longest-running legal blogs and, remarkably, Sabrina seems more prolific today than ever. She posts multiple items every day, covering the gamut of law, technology and knowledge discovery and topics ranging from cybersecurity to legal research to government regulation to civil liberties to IP and more. For me, BeSpacific is one of my daily must-reads and has been for 14 years straight.”
