Whistleblower says NSA violations bigger 14 Feb 2006

 

A former NSA employee said Tuesday there is another ongoing top-secret

surveillance program that might have violated millions of Americans'

Constitutional rights. Russell D. Tice told the House Government Reform

Subcommittee on National Security, Emerging Threats and International Relations

he has concerns about a " special access " electronic surveillance program that he

characterized as far more wide-ranging than the warrantless wiretapping recently

exposed by the New York Times but he is forbidden from discussing the program

with Congress.
