In a Nutshell |

In the 1990’s, America experienced the effects of both foreign and domestic terrorism. Students should understand the lasting significance of the nation’s actions to ensure a terrorist attack of that magnitude would not happen again, such as the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. Students should also understand why and how the USA PATRIOT ACT impacts the privacy of personal information and communication for the cause of national security. | |
