About me:

The Bill of Rights Defense Committee was founded in November 2001 to help communities across the country participate in an ongoing national debate about civil liberties and anti-terrorism legislation that threaten liberties, such as the USA PATRIOT Act, Homeland Security Act, several federal executive orders, and more recently the Military Commissions Act and the Protect America Act.

BORDC spearheaded a municipal campaign to defend the Bill of Rights, which has resulted in 414 resolutions all across the country. These resolutions express the community's expectation that the principles in the Bill of Rights should determine governmental conduct, and many of them instruct local governments not to cooperate with unconstitutional federal programs and orders. You can view resolutions that have been passed in your state or others here.

Fifty-three campus bodies, including student governments, faculty and university senates, librarian associations, and academic organizations, have passed resolutions opposing the troubling and dangerous provisions of the USA PATRIOT Act. To find out how to get your campus or your community involved, please visit BORDC's student page.

Support the Bill of Rights Defense Committee! You can also support the BORDC by giving financial donations. To find out how to do so please visit BORDC's donation page.

Who I'd like to meet:

You!
