Today, thousands in cities across the country from New York to San Francisco to Chicago to Boston joined in protest against the major telephone companies. These companies are spending one million dollars a day lobbying Congress to re-write the nation’s telecommunications laws–while press reports reveal that these same companies provided the calling records of tens of millions of Americans to the U.S. government.

Here in Boston, a statewide coalition held a rally and press conference at the Massachusetts State House joining in the nationwide day of protests.
