Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board


Rex Kickass

Recommended Posts

Probably not. It was one of the 9/11 Commission recommendations that got passed by Congress and signed into law by the President. However, this commission remained unfunded and unstaffed for 15 months.

 

Finally, they are starting to schedule hearings for this oversight board. It has no subpoena power and no budget. It will be looking over domestic wiretapping, data mining and the Patriot Act and it's chair will be Carol Dinkins.

 

Carol Dinkins is the law partner of Alberto Gonzalez.

The chair of the 9/11 commission is pissed about it. Thomas Kean, former Republican governor of New Jersey, sounds off in the link.
