What will be an ideal response?
The Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT) Act, signed into law on October 26, 2001, enables government to access information more readily. Its elements include: (1) allowing investigators to use the tools already available to investigate organized crime and drug trafficking; (2) facilitating information sharing and cooperation among government agencies so they can better "connect the dots"; (3) updating the law to reflect new technologies and new threats; and (4) increasing the penalties for those who commit or support terrorist crimes.
