Follow on Google News | Vote on NSA Spying Bill Critical Test for Florida CongressmenUS Representatives Vern Buchanan, Alan Grayson, Alcee Hastings, Bill Posey, Trey Radel, Dennis Ross, Ron DeSantis, Ted Deutch, John Mica, Rich Nugent, Steve Southerland, and Ted Yoho supported US Congressman Justin Amash’ The Amendment failed by seven votes, with 15 Florida Congressional Representatives voting against it. Florida Representatives alone could have reversed the outcome of this important vote by adhering to their Oath of Office to defend the US Constitution. Instead, the majority sided with the Obama Administration, denying Floridians their fundamental right to privacy. US Representatives Gus Bilirakis, Corrine Brown, Kathy Castor, Ander Crenshaw, Daniel Webster, Tom Rooney, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Mario Diaz-Balart, Lois Frankel, Joe Garcia, Jeff Miller, Patrick Murphy, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Frederica Wilson, and Bill Young need to explain to their Florida and Tampa Bay constituents why they chose to continue spying on Floridians and American citizens without requisite probable cause. This vote may well be critical to their reelection, as they face citizens from across the political spectrum who are increasingly demanding representation that defends and upholds their rights under the Constitution. “The Representatives who voted for this Amendment in defense of our Constitutional rights should be commended for placing our inalienable rights ahead of Presidential and Party leadership pressure,” ### About the Republican Liberty Caucus of Tampa Bay The Republican Liberty Caucus of Tampa Bay is a local organization focused on promoting the benefits of limited government, individual liberty and Constitutional adherence in government.
