ACLU Files FOIA Request Over Warrantless Surveillance and Searches

The ACLU has filed multiple Freedom of Information Act requests over Bush's executive order for warrantless electronic surveillance and physical searches of persons within this country.

Here's the one to the National Security Agency.(pdf)

The requests submitted today seek all records about "the policies, procedures and/or practices of the National Security Agency for gathering information through warrantless electronic surveillance and/or warrantless physical searches in the United States ...".... Information received by the organization will be made public on its Web site.
