Call your own rep and senators to ask if they are acting to guarantee that Federal websites are NOT illegally collecting information. If asked why be worried about this? Ask why, given the crimes this administration is committing in plain sight, they WOULDN'T be worried about this and want to make sure it is not happening?

If there is an email or fax contact, perhaps either email the following link or print and fax

(BTW, faxes are rarer and are more likely to be noticed. But many no longer make the fax number in their DC or state office public).

And if you are ambitious, contact the chair and ranking member (and others, particularly if you are also a constituent) of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform (https://oversight.house.gov/subcommittee/full-committee/) and the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs (https://www.hsgac.senate.gov/).

These are the committees that should be VERY concerned about illegal data collection by federal websites. When you contact a chair or ranking member, make sure you make it clear to the staff you speak to that you are contacting them in that capacity -- not as a constituent.
