Sign The Petition

Protecting Private Investigators and Security Professionals
Support the Investigation and Security Bill of Rights

NCISS is calling on Congress and the White House to recognize the importance of our profession and to safeguard the rights, resources, and tools necessary for investigators and security professionals to perform our duties effectively.

Our ability to perform our critical work is largely affected by legislative and regulatory changes. Laws that diminish or restrict our access to resources and policies that hinder our ability to safeguard the public have a profound impact on our profession, our justice system, and society.

To this end, NCISS has authored the Investigators and Security Professionals Bill of Rights to call on federal officials to recognize the necessity of our profession and the resources we require to serve the public.

We invite and encourage all investigators and security professionals nationwide to sign this petition to support our profession and make your voice heard.
