There's supposed to be a vote tomorrow on this bill, HR 2397. (Vote Wednesday 7-24-13)
Please call or write to your rep and tell them to support the Amash-Conyers amendment to end unconstitutional spying by the NSA.
Here is a Popvox page where you can voice your support, for those who use Popvox:

Phone calls probably have the most impact. But an e-mail is better than nothing.
Also, here's a suggestion from the ACLU, especially note #2:
1) I am calling to ask you to vote YES on the Amash amendment when it comes up for a vote tomorrow. The privacy of my phone data is a very important issue for me, and this is our first real chance to roll back the NSA's grossly broad spying program.
2) It's important to note that the amendment currently being sponsored by Representative Richard Nugent (R-FL) DOES NOT sufficiently restrict the NSA's ability to conduct dragnet surveillance, and I do not consider it a viable alternative to the Amash amendment.
