Sens. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) and Katie Britt (R-Ala.) sent a letter Monday pressing the Department of Justice to issue guidance to state and local law enforcement on preventing misuse of automated license plate readers (ALPRs). The bipartisan request comes as backlash against the technology grows nationwide, with concerns over privacy and data retention.
