DESCRIPTION:Join the Center for Constitutional Rights this Thursday, August 9, as we 
 argue in\nfederal court in San Francisco that the NSA's program of 
 warrantless surveillance is\nunconstitutional and should be struck 
 down.\n\nThe Bush Administration, with overwhelming support from Congress, 
 passed the Protect\nAmerica Act of 2007 this past weekend expanding the 
 Government's power to spy on\nAmericans without FISA court approval.  
 However, despite these efforts by both the\nExecutive and Legislative 
 branches to endorse illegal warrantless surveillance, CCR\nwill press on in 
 the courts in CCR v. Bush seeking summary judgment and an\ninjunction to 
 end this severe violation of the 4th Amendment and shredding 
 of\nfundamental civil rights.  CCR's lead attorney in CCR v. Bush, Shayana 
 Kadidal,\nprovides a more in depth analysis of the NSA's program and the 
 Protect America Act\nhere.\n\nI will be discussing this critical issue on 
 KPFA's morning show tomorrow at 7:30am\nPacific time, so please tune in. 
 This is a critical moment in United States history,\nand we encourage you 
 to support us by attending the oral arguments tomorrow in San\nFrancisco to 
 demonstrate your concern about this issue.  Popular unrest 
 has\nhistorically had an impact on judicial decisions in the United States 
 and now, more\nthan ever, we need your presence and conviction.\n\nOral 
 Arguments in CCR v. Bush\nThursday, August 9 at 2:00 pm \nCourtroom 6, 17th 
 Floor United States District Court, Northern District of California\n450 
 Golden Gate Avenue\nSan Francisco, CA\n\nSincerely,\n\nVincent 
 Warren\nExecutive Director\n\n\n
