“Political courage is usually in short supply, but there was a lot of it on display at a press conference on Capitol Hill in Washington on March 6.”
“Bernie Sanders, an independent from Vermont, and three other members of Congress had the nerve to be the first to call for changes in a law called the USA Patriot Act. They announced the introduction of H.R. 1157, the Freedom to Read Protection Act.”
