On May 25, 2011, Senator Rand Paul responded to Harry Reid's baseless attacks on his opposition to the misnamed "Patriot" Act and reiterated his defense of the Bill of Rights and the American people's privacy. Senator Rand Paul is continuing his efforts to hold Harry Reid accountable to his February promise to allow a full week of debate and open amendments on extending the Patriot Act. In defiance of Senate orders, Sen. Paul brought up three amendments and asked for unanimous consent to allow a discussion and a vote on them. Sen. Reid then personally objected to protecting gun-owners' rights and shut the attempt down. Rand is ensuring that this Patriot Act fight is far from over.
