Criminal Justice (Civil Liberties)

This resolution from the Louisiana House of Representatives asks the U.S. Congress to reform the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. It calls for repealing and rewriting the USA Patriot Act to limit warrantless searches and investigations of American citizens. The bill seeks to restore privacy rights and Fourth Amendment protections against unreasonable searches and seizures. It also urges state officials to uphold constitutional rights and avoid participating in any violations of citizens' rights.
