Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) told Miami’s WFOR Monday that she thought Edward Snowden should be prosecuted for leaking information about the National Security Agency’s surveillance programs.
“He should be extradited, arrested, and prosecuted,” she said. “That’s exactly what should happen to him because he violated the law. He violated America’s trust. He jeopardized millions of Americans.”
Wasserman Schultz told reporters that she herself voted against government surveillance programs, on the grounds that they didn’t sufficiently protect privacy rights.
