Is the FBI Spying on You?

The ACLU has launched a nationwide effort to expose and prevent FBI spying on people and groups simply for speaking out or practicing their faith. As a first step, the ACLU and its affiliates filed Freedom of Information Act requests in more than a dozen states. Although the FBI has refused to turn over most of the files, some have been released and they confirm that the FBI and local police, working through Joint Terrorism Task Forces, are spying on political, environmental, anti-war and faith-based groups. We think the public deserves to know who is being investigated and why. We are suing the FBI and the Department of Justice to get the answers.
