TAKE ACTION:

Hang up on the phone company! Tell the Public Utility Commission to stop the spying!

Tell the Public Utility Commission to investigate the phone companies. News reports indicate that phone companies routinely share private calling information with federal government investigators--without any court order or warrant.

This violates your constitutional rights, and the ACLU has filed a formal complaint on behalf of all Texans. But you can help promote a full investigation here in Texas by filing a complaint with the Public Utility Commission yourself. Your privacy is at stake!
