📅 21 March 2017 📍 United States

The ACLU announced that both judges required to approve the revised Raza and Handschu settlement had done so, with the second approval the previous evening. The agreement constrained discriminatory investigations and strengthened civilian oversight. Muslim plaintiffs and their lawyers converted a surveillance challenge into enforceable institutional safeguards. This entry dates the announcement of completed approval, rather than treating the 2016 proposal as an already effective settlement.
