Sponsor Ray Warner has decided to amend the Patriot Act petition which will be considered by the Williamstown Town Meeting on Tuesday (May 17). In a letter to signers of the petition, Warner said his substitute amendment will “delete the two paragraphs asking the police not to spy on us and the paragraph asking the library to destroy records of what books people borrow.” He said town librarian Pat McLeod is a strong support of the resolution, as it will be amended, and “will speak up for it at town meeting.” CLICK HERE FOR FULL STORY.
