Batavia High School Amnesty International Youth Group

Every person deserves privacy. Please consider signing this petition to encourage Congressman Randy Hultgren to cosponsor the GPS Act. Currently, law enforcement (from local to federal levels) is able to continuously collect geolocation data- in simpler words, the government is able to access your location at practically any time. This data can be used against vulnerable groups such as racial minorities and activists in courts of law. It is our hope that Congressman Hultgren will be able to help our group protect the privacy and safety of American citizens by promoting the GPS Act and its tenets. The GPS Act would prevent geolocation data from being collected without a warrant, and for this reason we believe that it should be passed.
