RGS Statement on The Email Privacy Act

Reform Government Surveillance applauds Reps. Yoder, Polis,

Goodlatte, Conyers, and all of the original cosponsors for reintroducing the

Email Privacy Act. The Email Privacy Act is crucial to modernizing our

outdated laws – written when cell phones and email were rarely used – and

making sure that all of our content has the protection of the Fourth

Amendment. The bill passed the House unanimously last year, and pushing

the bill to final passage will be one of our top priorities this Congress.
