Protect People’s Right to Privacy

They shouldn’t have to worry about the government surveilling their data or coming into their home, or doctor’s office to tell them what to do. Federal decisions have infringed on the right to privacy, but state lawmakers can protect Americans’ personal freedoms by ensuring that the government stays out of personal decisions and protects people’s privacy.
