IG REPORT ON PRESIDENT'S SURVEILLANCE PROGRAM

Last year, Congress directed intelligence agency Inspectors General to
prepare an unclassified report on the Bush Administration’s warrantless
surveillance program. That report has just been released. It traces the
origins, implementation, and utilization of the Program, and discusses the
legal questions surrounding its development. See Unclassified Report on the
President’s Surveillance Program (pdf), Joint Inspector General Report,
10 July 2009:
