WHOA: The House just voted to block the extension of the USA PATRIOT Act.
Nobody thought this was possible, but more than 55,000 Demand Progress members
signed a petition urging members of Congress to vote against the extension. And
it's working! Will you join them, by clicking here? <br>

<br>
<br>
The PATRIOT Act makes a mockery of our civil liberties: It lets government
officials spy on whomever they want, for any reason, without ever letting them
know or giving them a chance to challenge the order in court. <br>
<br>
The momentum is on our side, but the fight isn't over yet: The House leadership
is almost certain to try again to pass the extension, and the Senate is likely
to take the bill up next week. Please help block the extension by clicking
here! <br>
