The FISA bill is scheduled for markup in the Senate Judiciary Committee tomorrow (via FDL):
I meant to include this — please call the SJC members today. Tomorrow they begin the FISA bill mark-up, and a number of folks are leaning away from telecom immunity. Let’s make certain they keep going in that direction, shall we?
Today we have to make sure that the markup removes amnesty for criminal telecommunications companies, which was put in thanks to Senate Intelligence Committee chairman John. D. Rockefeller.
