Senate Votes Down Cybersecurity Act, Obama Likely to Sign Executive...

Shawn Henry, a veteran of the cyber security division in the FBI, stated in a CBS interview that although he has no proof, Russia and China are behind infiltration and damage to computers in America, while also claiming that he feels it is “very, very likely” that a massive cyber-attack is due to occur.

According to Jay Carney, White House Press Secretary, Obama may just write an executive order to ensure his cybersecurity agenda is implemented.

 The constitution was written for a reason to keep this country in place.     These criminals don't stand for America.   If there is a cyber attack it would be from China and Russia, but we have got better protection to protect ourselves from cyber attacks.

a good link to tweet your  person https://cyberspying.eff.org/

   this link get you the tweet your senator or whoever you want about this, and some tax link also

• Vote YES on privacy amendments like the Franken-Paul amendment so that companies do not have  the overbroad authority to monitor and even block our private communications, and,
• Vote NO on anti-privacy amendments like the McCain and Hutchison amendments that would allow the NSA and military to directly collect and use Americans’ personal internet information.

Again, Vote YES on Franken-Paul and NO on antiprivacy amendments. Thank

Ask your senators to support privacy amendments in cybersecurity bill

Posted on July 29, 2012 by TWegner | 17 Comments

UPDATE, 8/2/2012: This morning the U.S. Senate took a cloture vote to end debate on S.3414, the Cybersecurity Act of 2012. The vote was recorded as 52-46 meaning there was not the 60 votes necessary to advance the bill. This vote signals that the bill will likely not be taken up this year.

Thank you to all those who contacted your senators on this important issue. The fight to protect privacy is far from over though. Sign up for text alerts from the Washington Office to receive the most up to date information on advocacy alerts and events.
