Marylanders Concerned About the Patriot Act
The Maryland Bill of Rights Coalition is holding a statewide training for Marylanders concerned about the USA Patriot Act and related federal initiatives. The group is organizing individuals to meet with members of the Maryland congressional delegation to ask them to co-sponsor the SAFE Act, a Patriot Act fix bill. The documentary "Unconstitutional - The War On Our Civil Liberties" will be shown. The training will take place on Saturday, Jan. 15, from 2 to 5 p.m. at the Howard County Central Library (10375 Little Patuxent Pkwy.) in Columbia, Md. For more information, contact 410/889-8550, ext. 115, or curtis@aclu-md.org.
