Subject: [aladnow] Cybersecurity debate starts today, ask your senators to protect privacy


This week (today and tomorrow) the Senate is considering major
cybersecurity legislation, S. 3414 that could let the government
collect your sensitive and personal internet records. The bill is in
flux and subject to change during floor debate with 'good' and 'bad' amendments.
Your calls can make the difference. It is imperative that you call your
senators now.

For more information and a suggested call script, check out
www.ala.org/cybersecurity<http://www.ala.org/cybersecurity>. At that site, you can be directly connected to
your senators by using our new advocacy tool, Mobile Commons.

You can also find talking points and contact information at the
Legislative Action Center (ala.org/takeaction).
