The
Geolocational Privacy and Surveillance Act (GPS Act) would limit police
access to data generated by your phone, laptop and GPS navigation
units. This bipartisan bill would require police to get a “probable
cause” warrant to request this information from a private company. It
would also require warrants when law enforcement agencies want to
monitor movements directly, using a tracking device. Join us this fall in urging Congress to pass the GPS Act, and help limit police access to your personal data.
Sign up today for Amnesty International USA’s Spring Lobby Weeks (March 21-April 8). You
don’t need to travel to Washington, D.C. to send a strong message to
your Members of Congress to co-sponsor the Geolocational Privacy and
Surveillance Act. You can make your voice heard through contacting the
local district office of your U.S. House Representative and your U.S.
Senators in your home state. In addition to the GPS Act, Amnesty
activists will be urging Members of Congress to oppose anti-refugee
bills and to commit to supporting future funding for refugees.
