High ranking government officials have reported that a classified, four-page memo, dubbed the "FISA memo" (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act), has been made available to every member of the U.S. House of Representatives. This memo highlights extensive and abusive surveillance on American citizens by federal government agencies. The classified memo is also reported to contain details of collusion between government agencies, including the DOJ and FBI, and the Hillary Clinton political campaign against President Donald Trump, both prior to and following the presidential election.
Send an email to President Donald Trump, your representative, and senators and urge them to take the necessary steps to declassify and publicly release the four-page FISA memo.
