BREAKING NEWS: Mississippi is the 10th state with a Nullify NSA bill introduced! JACKSON, Miss., January 24, 2014 – With the introduction of the 4th Amendment Protection Act this week, Mississippi became the tenth state in the country to consider legislation to make life difficult for the NSA’s ongoing mass surveillance programs. Senate Bill 2438 (SB2438), introduced by Sen. Chris McDaniel, would make it the official policy of Mississippi to “refuse material support, participation or assistance to any federal agency which claims the power, or with any federal law, rule, regulation or order which purports to authorize the collection of electronic data or metadata of any person(s) pursuant to any action not based on a warrant that particularly describes the person(s), place(s) and thing(s) to be searched or seized.” In Mississippi, this primarily would address the use of data and metadata in court and criminal proceedings, thwarting some of the practical effects of what the NSA is trying to do with all the data it collects. blog.tenthamendmentcenter/2014/01/ten-and-counting-mississippi-legislation-takes-on-nsa-spying/
