Very good point! I'm appealing to their "better angels", I suppose. What I have in mind: In the wake of the Snowden revelations, Republicans in the Maryland State House introduced a bill that would have literally cut off utilities to the NSA in Fort Meade, Maryland. That was bold! Unfortunately, the Bill was quietly killed in the ensuing months, with nearly all the cosponsors, one by one, withdrawing their names from the Bill.
We need something like that again, only without the second part. We need something from them that sticks.
