Chicago reaction to Patriot Act

Bill of Rights Defense Committee:
"On October 1, 2003, Chicago, the third largest city in the U.S., passed a resolution affirming the rights and liberties of its residents and calling on the delegation representing Chicago in the federal government to work for the repeal of those sections of the Patriot Act which violate rights and liberties guaranteed by the Bill of Rights. The resolution passed 37-7. See the Chicagoland Coalition for Civil Liberties and Rights website."
