Text of the new surveillance law is covered up

Saturday, Congress passed a new surveillance law, HR 7888.

In the past, Congress had to pass a law to determine what was in it.

Now, even when they pass it, they still don’t know.

The bill’s provisions are covered up.

Congress’s website provides no details of HR 7888.
