C-SPAN others to cover Conyer's Domestic Spying Hearing
by Congressman John Conyers

Tomorrow, I will be holding a hearing/briefing on Bush's warrantless domestic spying program. The hearing will commence at 11 am ET, and will be broadcast live on C-SPAN, Radio Pacifica, and ABC Radio. It will also be covered by CNN, the New York Times, and many bloggers. This is particularly timely since the DOJ today issued a 42 page rant that again attempts to defend the indefensible - spying on Americans without court approval. For those in the DC area, you can see the hearing in person at B 339 Rayburn Bldg (1116 Longworth for overflow).

This is a Huge development. The fact that millions of Americans will be able to tune in and see House Democrats challenging this program will show that we don't need to simply sit on our hands while the Constitution is shredded.

5. How can I ever give up
when John Conyers keeps setting the example of speaking truth to power?

If he can persevere in working on effecting change, then so can, so MUST, I.
Thank you, Mr. Conyers, for always renewing my spirit and hope.
