Representative Rush Holt (D-NJ)
crafted new legislation that would abolish the Patriot Act, and on
Thursday the congressman introduced the bill known as HR-2818 to the
House that would do just that. The Surveillance State Repeal Act is
aimed to undo not only the Patriot Act but also the parts of the 2008
amendment to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act that gives the
government the power to have backdoor access to online electronic
devices. Rush Holt joins us with more on why he regrets passing the
Patriot Act and what he hopes will change.Find RT America in your area: http://rt.com/where-to-watch/
