Plain-English Summary

This bill would require the federal government to fully release all remaining documents related to COINTELPRO, the FBI's controversial secret surveillance and disruption program that targeted civil rights leaders, political activists, and other groups during the Cold War era. The disclosure would give the public and researchers access to previously hidden information about how the government monitored and interfered with American citizens and organizations. The bill affects government transparency and accountability by ensuring that historical records of these operations become available to the American people.
