May 6, 2020–Due Process Institute joined Defending Rights & Dissent, Demand Progress, and FreedomWorks to request that the Department of Justice and Office of the Director of National Intelligence confirm all relevant federal agencies have ended their surveillance activities under expired provisions of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. We also request that relevant agencies confirm they are not improperly using the remaining limited exceptions to continue activities that infringe upon the constitutional rights of all Americans.
On May 7th, 2020, this same coalition formally requested assistance with this request from leadership in the House and Senate Judiciary Committees.
