Harry Reid et al. are preparing to bring up once again the Intelligence Committee version of the FISA bill, which includes immunity for telecommunications companies involved in warrantless surveillance. Harry Reid ownes from $15,001 and $50,000 in the Dow Jones Telecomunication Index Fund, and received $22,000 in contributions from AT&T during the 2001-2006 election cycle.
Meanwhile, donations from these companies to Sen. Rockefeller, one of their most vocal champions, amounted to $42,000 in 2007.
Conflict of interest much, you old men?
