Introduce and support legislation to protect digital attorney-client communications between incarcerated people and their attorneys from government monitoring, while creating narrow warrant-based access and suppression remedies for violations.

today’s legislation would once and for all ensure that all communications between incarcerated individuals and their attorneys are granted equal protection.

Wyden says he is backing a bill to extend attorney-client privilege protections to digital communications in federal prison email systems.

Wyden helped introduce the Subpoena Abuse Prevention Act. It would limit federal use of administrative, grand jury, and trial subpoenas for communications records, require officials to certify they are not using subpoenas to monitor or retaliate, and let recipients notify affected users unless a court blocks disclosure.

Recent concrete legislative action by Wyden on communications privacy and anti-monitoring rules, but it does not specifically establish the prison attorney-client protections described in the claim.

Wyden led the Government Surveillance Reform Act push with Mike Lee. The bill would require warrants before the FBI accesses Americans' communications collected under Section 702 and would bar warrantless purchases of Americans' data from brokers.

This is strong evidence that Wyden continues to support warrant-based access reforms, but it is broader surveillance legislation rather than a prison attorney-client communications bill.
