Rep. Chip Roy

I have an obligation to look beyond the current president and to say the Constitution needs to make sure that we as Congress, as a voice, are standing up in defense of private citizens from having government that is surveilling them.

FISA has warrantless surveillance.

Now they want to create a central bank digital currency, which we passed legislation to try to ban.

And now you've got the kill switch that's about to be implemented next year.

That is surveillance technology in your car.

All of this is adding up to constant surveillance of the American people in violation of not just the spirit, but I believe the letter of the Fourth Amendment.

And this should be concerning to everybody and we should be trying to stop it.

Glenn, this is something that I hope all your listeners listen to and take to heart, that they need to be concerned about this.

You want to probably move on to other topics, but I'll leave with this.

We tried to amend the FISA with the central bank digital currency.

We did so successfully with some modest reforms to FISA, sent it to the Senate.

The Senate wouldn't take it up, so we ended up passing a 45-day extension.

Some of us, I offered an amendment to kill the kill switch.

Well, that was ruled non-germane.

Well, it's technically non-germane in a sort of legislative drafting sense, but it's totally germane to the

tyrannical surveillance of the American people.

So I'm gonna keep fighting to find vehicles to try to move those things.

So is Scott Perry, so is Thomas Massey, so are others who believe in liberty.

But the American people need to be advised of this and they need to harangue their members of Congress into making sure they prioritize this because 57 members of Congress voted against our bill or our amendment, sorry, last year to kill the kill switch on appropriations, 57.

Well, Glenn, I like to give credit where it's due.
