Heading to the House floor now to vote in support of @repjustinamash's #NSA amendment.
Jeff Duncan (R-SC 3):I voted for the Amash amendment which would have defunded attempts by the NSA to engage in blanket data mining operations against American citizens. Under 215 of the PATRIOT Act, the government can obtain a court order for business records, such as phone records, if such records are relevant to an ongoing national security investigation. NSA has been obtaining orders directing phone carriers to produce all call records for all subscribers – even though there is no indication that 99.99% of these subscribers have anything to do with any investigation. As the author of Section 215, Jim Sensenbrenner, pointed out on the House floor, the NSA's actions go beyond the text and structure of the statute. The amendment failed in a close vote.

The delicate balance between security and privacy has been lost. I joined 205 of my colleagues in support of an amendment to stop the NSA's dragnet collection of data. The amendment didn't pass, but I will continue to work with my colleagues to construct a legislative solution that reins in abuse of the Patriot Act and protects liberty.

Look forward to supporting @repjustinamash Amendment to fight NSA overreach! RT if you agree! #Liberty #Freedom #NSA
