Rand Paul threatens Patriot Act filibuster

“Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said in an interview published Monday that he will filibuster a reauthorization of provisions within the Patriot Act.  ‘I’m going to lead the charge in the next couple of weeks as the Patriot Act comes forward,’ the GOP presidential candidate told the New Hampshire Union Leader. ‘We will be filibustering. We will be trying to stop it. We are not going to let them run over us. And we are going to demand amendments and we are going to make sure the American people know that some of us at least are opposed to unlawful searches.’  Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) has said that he favors a full reauthorization of the measures.”
