#Repost @oneprotest @download.ins --- In order to get horses in the U.S. protected from being both slaughtered in the country and being transported out of the country to be slaughtered, is to SUPPORT the SAFE Act of 2021 H.R. 3355 and DISAPPROVE H.R.921 - Horse Transportation Safety Act of 2021. ✔️SAFE Act of 2021 H.R.3355✔️ This bill prohibits the transporting, receiving, possessing, purchasing, selling, or donation by a person of an equine (e.g., horse) that the person has reason to believe will be slaughtered for human consumption. 🚫H.R.921 - Horse Transportation Safety Act of 2021🚫 Prohibits the transportation of horses in interstate transportation in a motor vehicle containing 2 or more levels stacked on top of one another, and for other purposes. We want to get H.R. 921 thrown out until it evolves to include a ban on horse transportation for slaughter or consumption. 🐴✔️To support H.R. 3355 please visit Safe-Act.org to find your senators and learn more. 🐴🚫To show disapproval for H.R. 921 please take a moment to call 202-224-3121 and ask your Senators NOT to cosponsor and pass it.

The Library Threat, Part 2: Information Insecurities

After the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, concerns over the possibility of further aggression led to the passing of the USA Patriot Act on October 26, 2001, which gave federal agencies such as the FBI access people’s phone, email, and business records without a court order. Library records and patron details also fell under the purview of this act, as individuals could obtain free access to the potentially life-threatening information housed in library books, city maps, and online resources.  

This resulted in a debate within the library community, led by the American Library Association (ALA). While there was evidence that some terrorists were accessing dangerous information from local libraries, library records are considered confidential (see the ALA’s Library Bill of Rights and its post-9/11 interpretation of privacy), so government access without justifiable cause was deemed a breach of patron privacy. In addition, many ALA members felt that patrons should not be subject to wiretaps or other means of covert surveillance. Eventually, the ALA promoted the adoption of the Security And Freedom Ensured (SAFE) Act of 2005, which sought to limit the Patriot Act’s power to pull library records indiscriminately, without altogether denying the government access to them. The issue over what types of information should be allowed in libraries on online continues today.
