dc.description.abstract |
We, the undersigned civil rights, civil liberties, immigrants’ rights, religious, free speech,
technology and privacy organizations and individuals write to ask your Administration to address
the use of facial recognition technology (FRT) by the federal government. The use of FRT in
policing, public housing, schools, and other areas of public life poses profound and
unprecedented threats to core civil rights and civil liberties. |
