Paul, well known for his filibustering the renewal of the Patriot Act, which allowed bulk data collecting, won that round, only to watch as it was replaced with a new bill called the USA Freedoms Act. The USA Freedoms Act, a watered down Patriot Act, only puts a few more restrictions on how the US spies. Paul, having a good start to his campaign, only to be eclipsed by Trump, with his larger than life personality and campaign.
Questions of whether the spying programs were unconstitutional have been swirling since 2013 when Edward Snowden made details about the programs public. Snowden is the NSA contractor who copied large amounts of classified documents onto a thumbdrive and leaked the information to journalists.
For those that are bothered by the NSA spying programs, Paul seems to be the only candidate that would work to stop it. For the Senator, it’s a major problem that affects virtually all Americans.
Paul states he will turn the huge data collecting facility into something else:
“I’m on my way to the airport, but we decided to stop by the NSA facility in Utah. When I become President, we’ll convert it into a Constitutional Center to study the Fourth Amendment! Bulk data collection must end!”
