• San Diego CAIR chapter, various mosques in the surrounding area, and many civil rights groups submitted a letter to the San Diego FBI asking for clarification on media reports about FBI anti-muslim training and instructors.
• CAIR national sent a letter to FBI director Robert Mueller calling for swift reforms on the agency's use of anti-Islam training material and instructors.

What is FOIA?

• FOIA is a law that gives you the right to access information from the federal government.
• Often described as the law that keeps citizens in the know about their government. 
• Under the FOIA, agencies must disclose any information that is requested – unless that information is protected from public disclosure. 
• The FOIA also requires that agencies automatically disclose certain information, including frequently requested records. 
• As Congress, the President, and the Supreme Court have all recognized, the FOIA is a vital part of our democracy.

How are FBI trainers and curriculum chosen?

I have searched, and searched all over the internet trying to find a link, article, something to tell me how the instructors are chosen. After scouring the FBI website I am still at zero. There is nothing on the internet, which I find to be really surprising. However, this is an excellent idea for a FOIA Request.
