An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Pass Strong Federal Data Privacy Legislation Now

1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

Pass comprehensive federal data privacy legislation that puts real limits on how much personal data corporations can collect, store, and sell. Right now, companies vacuum up our location history, browsing habits, financial behavior, and personal communications with almost no legal guardrails. That has to stop. The United States is one of the few wealthy democracies without a strong national data privacy law. Meanwhile, data brokers profit by selling detailed profiles of ordinary Americans to anyone willing to pay. This isn't a tech policy abstraction — it's a question of whether people in this country have any meaningful control over their own lives. Vote for legislation that requires explicit consent before data collection, limits retention periods, and gives individuals the right to delete what's been gathered on them. Anything less is a green light for corporate surveillance to keep expanding.
