Senator Rand Paul Introduces Amendments to PATRIOT Act
Senator Rand Paul Introduces Amendments to USA PATRIOT Act Extension Bill
Published on 23 May 2011
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Sen. Rand Paul introduced eight amendments and co-sponsored one amendment to the USA PATRIOT Act extension bill.
During the initial debate on PATRIOT Act reauthorization earlier this year, Senate Democrat Leader Harry Reid’s said he would allow amendments and debate when the bill was brought up again.
Senator Reid’s (D-Nev.) comments in the Feb. 15, 2011, Congressional Record:
Mr. REID. Mr. President, I express my appreciation to everyone involved. It has been a difficult issue, but I will put on the record what I have told a number of Senators personally, and that is that we will, prior to this expiration occurring, bring up the PATRIOT Act and have an opportunity for an extended period of time–a week at least–to offer amendments and do whatever people feel is appropriate on this bill.
I have talked to a couple of Senators who have told me specifically that they want to offer amendments. Although I didn’t agree I would support their amendments–one was a Democrat and one was a Republican–I said that is what we should be able to do, to set this up so they can offer their amendments. And I will do whatever I can to make sure we move forward on this legislation in ample time so that we can pass this PATRIOT Act for a more extended period of time, which is so important to the security of this country. I know people have problems with it, and that is why we are going to have the amendment process.
Taking Sen. Reid at his word, Sen. Paul is introducing the following amendments to the extension bill:
· Burden-Shifting Suspicious Activity Report Amendment: Requires law enforcement to initiate requests for suspicious activity reports (SARs). Shifts the burden for generating suspicious activity reports to law enforcement, requiring FBI/other law enforcement to initiate requests for SARs, rather than requiring financial institutions to automatically generate these reports.
o Supported by Kentucky Bankers Association and National Association of Federal Credit Unions
· National Security Letters Issued by Judges: States that no officer or employee of the United States may issue a National Security Letter (NSL) unless a FISA court judge finds that probable cause exists to issue the NSL. Brings NSLs into compliance with plain text of Fourth Amendment.
· Firearm Records Amendment: Clarifies that the authority to obtain info under the USA PATRIOT Act does not include authority to obtain certain firearm records. Supported by Gun Owners of America.
· Roving Wiretaps Amendment: This amendment eliminates the possibility of “John Doeâ€
