Subcommittee to Investigate the Administration of the Internal
Security Act and Other Internal Security Laws
While not as well known as its counterpart in the House of
Representatives, the House Un-American Activities Committee, the Senate, too,
investigated internal security issues, the main one at the time of the passing of the
Internal Security Act in 1950 being the issue of Communist infiltration and the
potential for a takeover by the Soviet Union. Also, its lower profile
meant the committee lasted until the 1970s. Below are links to hearings by
the committee digitized by the Boston Public Library.
