The group tracks day-to-day operations at the FBI, the IRS, the Immigration and Naturalization Service, the Customs Bureau, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, and -- thanks to a recent Freedom of Information Act victory -- the Department of Justice, all the way through the first nine months of the Bush administration.
