Robert Block reports for The Wall Street Journal: "In the first sign of opposition to a controversial satellite-surveillance plan, House Democrats told the Department of Homeland Security they intend to exercise close oversight of the program.... The announcement, contained in a tersely worded letter sent yesterday to Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff by House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson, echoes concerns voiced by some critics that the planned program lacks sufficient safeguards to prevent abuses."
