On 14 February 2011, SLA, AALL, and MLA sent a letter to Patrick J. Leahy, Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, expressing support for the USA PATRIOT Act Sunset Extension Act of 2011 (S. 193) that reauthorizes expiring provisions. The letter commends Chairman Leahy for his legislation which is carefully constructed to recognize the importance of balancing the government’s interest in protecting national security with defending the constitutional rights of the American people.
