Bill of the Month July 2022 : The Fourth Amendment is Not for Sale Act – FreedomWorks

FreedomWorks is excited to recognize The Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act (FANFSA) as our Bill of the Month for July 2022.

Weve all watched the cringeworthy hearings where senators take turns grilling Big Tech CEOs over why their constituent emails have such low open rates. While the fight over regulating Big Tech rages, Americans 4th Amendment rights continue to be abused in other areas that do in fact require a measured response. That is why a group of bipartisan senators introduced The Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act (FANFSA).

In the Senate, the bill enjoys 20 co-sponsors ranging from Sens. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) to Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). The House companion bill is sponsored by Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.).

Congress must reignite the fight to protect the privacy of all Americans and pass FANSFA to close this loophole.
