On behalf of the American Civil Liberties Union, its hundreds of thousands of members and 53 affiliates nation-wide, we write to express concern about recent reports that the Justice Department will issue new Attorney General Guidelinesauthorizing the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to use racial profiling to open and conduct investigations on Americans, and we urge you to vigorously investigate these reports.

Every month, you'll receive regular roundups of the most important civil rights and civil liberties developments. Remember: a well-informed citizenry is the best defense against tyranny.
