No. The Patriot should have NO sunset provision and should be made permanent. The debate all along should not have been about extending it but making it permanent.

What I don't understand is that if there were all these abuses, where is the evidence??? I have seen zero evidence of any normal cotizens being abused by the NSA or HSD. The RINO's really are scum.

Care to explain why it shouldn't have a sunset provision?

In my opinion, ALL laws should come with an automatic sunset provision and it should be written into the Constitution as an Amendment.

Keeps lawmakers busy and makes them do their jobs, not just knee jerk reactions to situations that affect us all.

Perhaps the "Sunset Provision" should read "when the war is over" or maybe "when there are no more international terrorists"??? I'm being facetious, but we've always found it necessary to amend personal freedoms during a war.
