Still Not Safe in California
Submitted by Xiaochin Claire Yan on 12.8.2004
SACRAMENTO, CA - The post-9/11 intelligence reorganization bill is expected to pass Congress but Californians should not feel any safer.

Submitted by K. Lloyd Billingsley on 12.1.2004
On December 7, 2004, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear cases that will help determine whether producers of wine can sell their product to a national market over the Internet and ship it directly to customers. That is now possible only on a limited scale. Current restrictions raise constitutional issues, which the high court will address.
