    Block Trump's warrantless spying on Americans!

    Petition to Congress:
    We urge you to oppose any bill to reauthorize FISA surveillance unless it closes the data broker and backdoor search loopholes.

    The White House is trying to ram core pieces of its authoritarian agenda through Congress — including a bill to extend warrantless government spying on Americans.1

    Trump called for a "clean" extension of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) without any privacy protections.2 If the measure passes, Stephen Miller and Kash Patel can continue warrantless searches through Americans’ electronic communications and location data.3 And Pete Hegseth can use AI to supercharge mass surveillance.4

    Congress will be voting again before Section 702 expires on June 12. A bipartisan coalition in Congress has blocked Trump's extension twice. Now, lawmakers need to pass legislation closing dangerous loopholes!

    Sign the petition: Deny Trump a "clean" warrantless surveillance extension. Close spying loopholes NOW!

    Last week, the White House failed to meet a deadline to publicly release a key court opinion revealing the administration’s widespread violations of Americans’ privacy rights.5

    Trump and Stephen Miller's mass surveillance is especially terrifying when the administration wants to use AI to collect and analyze "commercial bulk data on Americans, such as geolocation and web browsing data."

    The vast majority of voters agree that Congress must pass reforms to the current warrantless government surveillance regime. Congress must stand for privacy and the safety of their constituents.

    Sign the petition: No warrantless, AI-powered surveillance in America! Block reauthorization of FISA unless it includes protections for our privacy.
