June 15 On this date in 2005, in a stunning 238 to 187 victory for the US
library and archival community, the United States House of Representatives
approved an amendment to the Patriot Act that barred the Department of
Justice from using any appropriated federal funds to search library and
bookstore records under provisions of the Patriot Act. The amendment,
remarkably similar to the "Freedom to Read Protection Act" that was attached
to the House Science State Justice Subcommittee appropriations bill, was
advanced by Representative Bernie Sanders (I- VT) and endorsed by a curious
coalition of some 38 House conservatives worried about government intrusion
and about 200 Democrats concerned about personal privacy. In effect, the
Sanders amendment restored legal standards and warrant procedures for
investigations of library and bookstore records that were in place prior to
enactment of the Patriot Act.
