About us:
The Chicago Committee to Defend the Bill Of Rights (CCDBR) has fought for 43 years against government encroachment on our constitutional rights in all its forms.  CCDBR began as part of the struggle to disband the House Committee on UnAmerican Activities (HUAC), played a major role in the opposition to Chicago Police "Red Squad" spying in the seventies, and in 2003 helped facilitate the passage of the Chicago City Council Resolution against The Patriot Act.

The Bill of Rights Foundation (BORF) is a 501(c)3, not-for-profit foundation that supports the struggle against all activities that threaten the freedoms guaranteed in our Bill of Rights.
