Committee members seek info on Homeland Security use of satellites

April 9, 2008

“Key House Homeland Security Committee Democrats demanded Monday that the Homeland Security Department provide Congress with more information on how a new office that coordinates the use of space satellites will legally operate and protect the privacy and rights of U.S. citizens.

In a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, the lawmakers said they will prevent the office from opening until their concerns are addressed.” (GovExec)
