CDT Opposes "Write Your Own Subpoena" Power for FBI
CDT Opposes "Write Your Own Subpoena" Power for FBI: "CDT will testify Tuesday, May 24, before the Senate Intelligence Committee in opposition to a proposal to expand the PATRIOT Act by granting the FBI power to issue so-called 'administrative subpoenas,' which would allow the FBI to demand disclosure of records without judicial approval. CDT will urge the Committee to focus on adding checks and balances to the PATRIOT Act rather than creating new, unchecked powers. CDT's analysis shows that administrative subpoena power for the FBI is unprecedented."
