How the Military Industrial Complex Targeted the Amash Amendment

“The NSA gave members of Congress private scare briefings. Former Attorney Generals and past ‘spook agency’ leaders signed an open letter of opposition.  The Wall Street Journal attacked Amash as ‘unqualified’ to introduce such a bill.  The Democratic Whip’s office even suggested that the Amash amendment ‘…pertain[s] to persons who may be in communication with terrorist groups…’ But the absolute worst tactic came from the House Republican leadership. They offered an amendment that would supposedly protect Americans from the PRISM system. Sounds good right? Well… It was a fraud designed to peel away support from Amash.”
