Quote of Note: John Conyers
"I have not seen anything that leads me to believe, as the President seems to believe, that providing amnesty to these companies [telcos] is a more compelling public interest than our Constitutionally protected right to privacy. We must maintain our civil liberties and give the government the tools it needs to collect intelligence information, but I do not believe telecom amnesty is necessary in order to accomplish that goal."
Representative John Conyers, Chairman House Judiciary Committee, in a statement yesterday.
