9/11 Recommendations Implementation Act
"Patriot Act II" Provisions in H.R. 10 (As Passed by House)
in
These provisions either amend sections of the USA PATRIOT Act or are drawn from a draft Justice Department proposal that circulated in 2003, the "Domestic Security Enhancement Act," also called "Patriot II." They were added by the House leadership over the objections of members of the 9-11 Commission and victims' families. Except for the first three, none had received a hearing before any committee of Congress before they appeared in H.R. 10.
"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a
little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
- Benjamin Franklin, 1759
