Abstract

The article discusses a secret, far-reaching program which the U.S. Treasury Department has been using to track suspected terrorist financing. The Terrorist Finance Tracking Program allows the government access to records of international financial transfers. The subpoenas the U.S. uses to access the records are based on the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which deals with economic sanctions.
