We, the undersigned, urge the ___________________________ to pass a Resolution calling for

- Ordering the National Security Agency to conduct electronic surveillance of American citizens without seeking warrants from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review;
- Conspiring to commit the torture of prisoners;
