I was over at boingboing and saw that The EFF posted a call to call to action. I filled out the form ant sent my letter...

I found a live feed on c-span of the proceedings of the issue and tuned in just in time to see Ron Wyden (D - Oregon, my state). He voted no, on giving the communications company retroactive immunity for their participation in the illegal wiretapping programs. Wyden was quite impassioned about the issue. Kinda proud to have him representing me right now.

Wyden has also proposed amendments to the FISA rules to protect Americans while overseas from unwarranted wiretaps.
