Description of USA Patriot Act
The USA Patriot Act was overwhelming passed by Congress in October 2001, intended to give investigators more tools for apprehending terrorists. Its proponents say it is necessary for protection; others are wary that it threatens constitutional rights. This wide-ranging document broadens the definition of terrorism and increases the penalties for terrorist acts; it also allows greater leeway for electronic surveillance.
