		On the morning of September 11, as the United States came under attack, I was in an airplane with several members of the Justice Department en route to Milwaukee, in the skies over the Great Lakes.
		From that moment, at the command of the President of the United States, I began to mobilize the resources of the Department of Justice toward one single, over-arching and over-riding objective: to save innocent lives from further acts of terrorism.
		Chairman and members of the committee, we are at war with an enemy who abuses individual rights as it abuses jet airliners: as weapons with which to kill Americans.

	OMC Defense Letter to Senate 2004.06.01 - PEGC
		The United States Senate should carefully consider whether it is appropriate for the Congress to commit funds and members of the Armed Forces of the United States in support of such a purpose.
		The White House Counsel states that these offenses are capable of abuse, even in a context when the full panoply of American civil law applies to guard against exactly that kind of prosecutorial abuse, including all of the protections given to defendants in the Bill of Rights, such as the Miranda rules and the like.
		This is not the tradition of the United States military, it certainly is not the tradition of the United States civilian justice system, and it does not come close to complying with basic principles of treaties that the United States Senate has ratified.

		Earlier, the Judiciary Committee had rejected an amendment that would have obliged undocumented immigrants to return to their countries of origin to apply for a visa.
		Earlier in the day, the Judiciary Committee rejected one controversial part of legislation that would make felons of undocumented immigrants, a measure already passed by the lower house and one that has provoked large demonstrations against it by immigrants and their allies across the country.

	Testimony of Dr. Morton H. Halperin Before The United States Senate Judiciary Committee - Council on Foreign Relations
		This committee does not have to be reminded that intelligence agencies have in the past abused their authority to spy on and even disrupt lawful political activity under the guise that those protesting the actions of our government were in fact agents of a foreign power.
		Now we are told that the efforts of Congress to expose those abuses, especially the work of the Church Committee, is somehow responsible for the failure of the CIA to learn about and prevent the tragic acts of September 11.
		Given the activities of terrorists who operate both in the United States and abroad, I believe that such sharing is appropriate, but I believe it needs to be limited in several ways.

	BORDC: Penalizing Material Support to Terrorist Organizations
		Congress specifically found that the Communist Party was a foreign-dominated group engaged in terrorism for the purpose of overthrowing the United States,(5) yet the Supreme Court consistently held that individuals could not be penalized for their Communist Party associations absent proof of “specific intent” to further the group’s illegal ends.
		The United States made just such a broad “freeing up” argument to the Supreme Court in United States v.Scales as a reason for rejecting the specific intent test, without success.
		Similarly, the Section-by-Section Analysis of the USA PATRIOT Act presented to the Senate stated that the amendment to the definition of material support would “prohibit[] providing terrorists with ‘expert advice or assistance,’ such as flight training, knowing or intending that it will be used to prepare for or carry out an act of terrorism.
