No Tech Wall: Reject New Funding for Border Surveillance

Increased mass surveillance, including at the border, threatens everyone’s civil liberties. Yet some Congressional Democrats, looking for alternatives to President Trump’s demand for a border wall, recently offered a border “security” proposal that suggests expanding surveillance at the border. That could lead to new funding for technologies that invade the privacy of immigrants, travelers, and American citizens living near the border.

Let’s tell them: Trading a physical wall for a digital surveillance wall that violates our civil rights is not an option. Send a tweet to Congressional leaders asking them to Stop the Tech Wall.

Now, Alice is in trouble. Let's tell the Patent Office to save it.

Tell the Senate Not to Make the Register of Copyrights a Presidential Pawn

The Senate is considering passing a bill which would turn the Register of Copyrights into a presidential appointee. The work of the Register is done best when it is not politicized, which is exactly what the so-called “Register of Copyrights Selection and Accountability Act” would do.

Tell the Senate not to turn to turn the Register into a pawn of the President.
