Jane Harman: “Lawfully authorized national security and law enforcement activities are critical in this era of terror. Legislation…”

On the recordJune 12, 2007
Lawfully authorized national security and law enforcement activities are critical in this era of terror. Legislation designed to improve our Nation's safety and security, like the Truth in Caller ID Act, should not inadvertently impair them, nor should it expand them. This carefully crafted bill, in my view, strikes the right balance. And I would like to commend the author, Mr. Engel, Mr. Barton, Mr. Dingell, Mr. Markey, and Mr. Upton for their diligent work. I urge my colleagues to support the legislation.
