Why would the President want to sign off on a retroactive change in the law that harms US national interests? Telecoms believed they were cooperating with the security interests of the US. Most Americans agree. A few scummy legislators and their trial bar allies are trying to undermine US security. Retroactive immunity just recognises the spirit of the agreements.

Of course they should be immune from being clipped by the hateful and the greedy.
