Sessions: USA Freedom Act Strikes Balance Between Security, Liberty

Washington, DC – U.S. Congressman Pete Sessions (R-TX), chairman of the House Rules Committee, today issued the following statement on the House’s passage of H.R. 2048, the USA Freedom Act:

“There is no more important a debate than the one between security and liberty. That’s why I was proud today to support the USA Freedom Act, which prevents government overreach and provides the tools necessary to combat threats to our national security. Our work in finding a balance on this issue will continue, but today’s passage of this important legislation is a step in the right direction toward prioritizing the safety and security of our great nation while maintaining freedom for all citizens.”
