Via e-mail, Chris Dodd is asking for our help in stopping retroactive telecom immunity.
This is it.Today the Senate will be debating FISA and retroactive immunity.
By tomorrow, it's likely that voting will be done.
And what we do together over the next 24 hours will determine what the legislation looks like.
I've offered an amendment to strip retroactive immunity from the FISA legislation.
On Monday you joined thousands of Americans online by calling your Senators (with the help of our friends at FireDogLake) and asking them to vote "NO" on any bill containing retroactive immunity.
There's still time for more calls to be made.

I promise you that your voices are being heard in the halls of the Senate.
I promise you that I will continue to fight alongside you until the last vote is counted.
Help me now to ensure that my next email to you will be a celebration of our commitment to the rule of law.
Thank you, Senator Dodd for standing with us once again.
Make the calls, everyone. Until the vote, every call and every bit of pressure counts. Remember, the only reason this isn't law already is because of us. Let's try to keep it that way.
Update [2008-7-8 11:25:41 by Todd Beeton]:Senator Feingold will be speaking on the floor of the senate in a few minutes about his, Senator Dodd's and Senator Leahy's amendment to strip telecom immunity. Get on the horn, people.
Update [2008-7-8 11:31:59 by Josh Orton]: You can use Blue America's call tools (the ones Dodd links to) to contact your Senators right here.
