About this record

1978 Senate Subcommittee hearings (95th Congress) lamenting the post-Church Committee curtailment of FBI domestic intelligence. PFOC, the Weather Underground, the FALN, and the BLA are repeatedly cited as the threats the committee believed the FBI was no longer monitoring adequately. A key document for understanding the political backlash that fed the FBI's renewed 1980s counter-intelligence push.
