A group of anonymous FBI employees has filed a class action lawsuit against the Trump administration, alleging it violated their constitutional rights by gathering and potentially releasing information on employees who partook in investigations surrounding the events of Jan. 6, 2021, and the Mar-A-Lago classified documents case.

The lawsuit centers on a survey the employees say they were directed to fill out that identified their specific role in those cases.
