Revise the Stored Communications Act. An email that is older than 180 days should not be viable for a unwarranted search

Created by G.S. on May 31, 2013

We the people urge the White House to revise the Stored Communications Act. This law is outdated and violates the fourth amendment rights in this digital age. Emails older than 180 days should still require a warrant for search and seizure. In United States v. Warshak the Sixth Circuit found that emails are protected under the Fourth Amendment however no formal changes have occurred.
