Help Protect Our Privacy

When you apply for a job, nothing gives your potential employer the right to go to your house and sift through your personal belongings. So why should he or she have the right to passwords for your online accounts?

Such practices are a real abuse and a threatening problem: employers wrongly invading job applicants' privacy by demanding passwords for private email accounts and social networking profiles like Facebook.

I introduced the Password Protection Act of 2012 to outlaw this threatening problem.

Help build public support for this crucial legislation to keep your employer out of your private, password-protected accounts. Make your voice heard today and add your name as a supporter of this important legislation.

Across the country, job applicants are increasingly being asked to hand over their passwords to personal email accounts and sites like Facebook so that prospective employers can investigate their online activity. This practice is an unreasonable invasion of privacy, and it needs to end. Senator Richard Blumenthal has introduced The Password Protection Act of 2012, which will put an end to this.
