Wyden Applauds Court Decision On NSA Phone Records Program

Oregon Senator Ron Wyden is calling a federal appeals court ruling saying the National Security Agency’s mass collection of Americans’ phone records goes beyond what Congress authorized “a huge win for individual rights.”  Wyden has contended the program violates the law without making the country safer, and is calling on President Obama to end it, adding if he doesn’t Congress should.  The court ruling still allows NSA to continue the program, but calls on Congress to step in and decide how to best balance national security and privacy interests.
