Dems Trying to Kill "John Doe" Amendment

The "John Doe" Amendment is a bill that protects citizens from lawsuits and harrassment if they report suspicious activity that might lead to a terrorist attack. This is part of a much larger set of Homeland Security legislation that come from the recommendations of the 9/11 Commission.

Democrats in both the House and the Senate oppose this protection, and believe it is right for groups like CAIR to get lawsuit-happy on citizen whistleblowers who are simply doing their patriotic duty to report suspicious activities and keep our nation safe.

Want more info? Read more about this at National Review Online, The Washington Times, Michelle Malkin, Little Green Footballs, Hot Air, and The American Pundit.

Or, let Congress know that pulling this amendment is wrong (h/t Michelle Malkin).

Congress Switchboard: 202-224-3121
Nancy Pelosi's Office: 202-225-4965

Protect the citizens, support the John Doe amendment.
