Rep. Justin Amash Pushes for More Information About NSA Snooping

He's gathering support from colleagues

|

WASHINGTON — Libertarian Congressman Justin Amash's office is circulating a letter in Congress that demands the government answer questions about the scale and scope of the National Security Agency phone record snooping exposed by the Guardian on Wednesday.

The letter, which will be delivered to the FBI and the NSA at the end of the day, asks for clarity on the fact that the NSA has been pulling metadata for all Verizon calls made in the U.S. and between the U.S. and abroad.
