Third. the legislation does nothing to address the many unilateral civil rights and civil liberties abuses by the administration since the September 11 attacks. Finally. the bill does not provide law enforcement with any additional real and meaningful tools necessary to help our Nation prevail in the war against terrorism. Since 2002. 389 communities and 7 States have passed resolutions opposing parts of the PATRIOT Act. representing over 62 million people. Additionally. numerous groups ranging the political spectrum have come forward to oppose certain sections of the PATRIOT Act and to demand that Congress conduct more oversight on its use. including the American Civil Liberties Union. American Conservative Union. American Immigration Lawyers Association. American Library Association. Center for Constitutional Rights.
