Cities across America are removing Flock cameras after citizens spoke up. Here's how you can help end mass surveillance in Huntsville.
We're calling on the Huntsville City Council to terminate all agreements with Flock Safety and remove automated license plate readers from our streets.
Your signature shows our elected officials that Huntsville residents value their Fourth Amendment rights and refuse to accept warrantless mass surveillance in our community.
When Eugene and Springfield residents organized, their cities terminated Flock contracts within months. When Scarsdale residents pushed back, they ended their ALPR program. Huntsville can do the same—but only if we speak up together.
Your elected representatives need to hear from you. A personal phone call or email from a constituent carries real weight. Let them know you oppose warrantless mass surveillance.
Not sure what to say? Here's a sample script you can use when calling or emailing your representatives:
"Hello, my name is [YOUR NAME] and I'm a resident of [YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD/DISTRICT]. I'm calling to express my concern about Flock Safety's automated license plate reader cameras in Huntsville.
These cameras track every vehicle that passes—not just criminals, but every resident going about their daily lives. I believe this warrantless mass surveillance violates our Fourth Amendment rights.
In 2025, we learned that Flock's system was used to track abortion seekers, surveil protesters, and share data with federal immigration agencies—often without the knowledge of local police departments. Other cities like Eugene, Oregon have already terminated their Flock contracts.
I'm asking you to support removing Flock cameras from Huntsville and ending our city's participation in this surveillance network. Thank you for your time."
Feel free to personalize this script with your own concerns and experiences.
