Print Ad: Wiretapping Innocent Americans Is an Abuse of Government Power

Document Date: January 16, 2006

The ACLU ran a full-page advertisement in

the Washington Post criticizing the president for authorizing the

National Security Agency to engage in illegal surveillance of Americans. The

ad invokes Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the civil rights pioneer who was an

innocent victim of illegal government wiretapping and draws the correlation

between abuse of government power and illegal warrantless wiretapping authorized

by President Bush.
