2) NSA collects data on 3 billion phone calls per day, which is about 30
percent of all Americans call records.
3) The XKeyscore Program captures and stores 40 billion internet records
per month.
4) International payments, banking and credit card transactions are flagged
and monitored by the NSA.

SECTION 2: PURPOSE
This bill provides that the National Security Agencys (NSA) mass data collection
program become illegal to uphold each citizens entitled civil rights.

SECTION 3: GENERAL PROVISIONS

Agencys bulk telephone records program and mass collection of information and data
records online and offline. As these programs violate the civil rights to privacy, any

will lead to federal investigations of the transgression and punishments set accordingly
to the degree of violation.

information about a foreign government or a competing industry, with the purpose of
