Show Us the Data: The Most Wanted Government Documents

The Patriot Act and associated civil liberties violations remain on the most wanted list from the 2004 Ten Most Wanted. The facts have not changed; the public has a right to know the details of when special investigative power is extended under the Patriot Act. This is especially important in investigations not directly related to terrorism. Currently the Justice Department is not providing statistical reports on Patriot Act usage, and without such reports, the public has no method of knowing when the government might be overstepping its investigative boundaries.
