F.O.I.L. The Police

Uncover violent police officers and union contracts that block accountability in your town by sending a Freedom of Information request e-mail to your local government.

Local governments are required to respond to any FOI request for records you send. These requests have released police body cam videos, revealed police tracking of activists, and uncovered use of force by officers. It's your right and duty to monitor your local police.
