Even if you're not Catholic, this morning's Recommended diary by actual hero Jesselyn Radack has fallen off the list and there's still work to be done. Go to the diary for links, but here's the important part.
Today is The Day We Fight Back against mass surveillance.
Here are several easy things you can do to participate today:
(1) Call or write to Congress. Urge them to support and strengthen the USA FREEDOM Act - a bi-partisan effort that will start to reign in the out of control surveillance state, including ending the bulk collection under Section 215 of the USA PATRIOT Act. Urge them to oppose the FISA Improvements Act - the Intelligence Community dream bill that would codify bulk collection.
(2) Add a warning and protest signature line to your e-mails:
