Statement of Senator Russ Feingold On Senator Schumer’s Proposed Legislation Regarding the President’s Warrantless Wiretapping Program March 29, 2006 "I applaud Senator Schumer’s desire to get this issue to the Supreme Court as soon as possible. I am pleased that my colleagues are thinking about ways to address the President's illegal conduct. But while I look forward to reviewing the Schumer proposal, Congress itself should not delay in holding the President accountable for his illegal actions."
