Why Rep. John Conyers wants to defund NSA’s phone snooping

A Q&A with Rep John Conyers (D-MI). He, along with Rep. Justin Amash (R-MI), proposed an amendment to the defense spending bill that would restrict the National Security Agency’s (NSA) ability to collect bulk phone records and metadata under the Patriot Act by defunding the program. The amendment has been denounced by the Administration.
