How does OHS work to protect civil liberties?
OHS is committed to protecting California from terrorist attacks while respecting the rights and liberties of Californians. OHS and the threat assessment centers must comply with all applicable Constitutional provisions and Federal and State laws, regulations and policies regarding the protection of civil rights and civil liberties. Because protecting civil rights and civil iberties is so fundamentally important to our democracy and our office’s mission, we established the State Terrorism Threat Assessment Advisory Group (STTAAG) to provide independent advice and counsel on those issues.
