You can't exactly repeal FREEDOM or PATRIOTism without something better. How about the Freedom Reform Enacted to Elicit Government Underfunding of Network Surveillance Act? (FREE GUNS Act) | |

| Jan 19, 2020 at 6:03 | comment | added | 264 champagne bottles on ice | @divibisan: the article linked also covers the other candidates.. and gives everyone grades on this issue. They gave Biden and a "D-" for instance, with this summary "The general tenor of Biden’s approach to government surveillance powers seems clear: Notwithstanding a short period of opposition in 2006, he has generally worked to expand them, and to silence people who blew the whistle on them." Rick's answer included only those with a grade of B- or better and who are still in the race. | |
