The McCarran Act, formally known as the McCarran Internal Security Act of 1950, was a U.S. federal law aimed at addressing national security concerns during the Cold War. It required organizations deemed to be communist or subversive to register with the government and mandated the disclosure of their members. The Act also provided for the detention of individuals suspected of being involved in activities related to espionage or sabotage. Critics argued that it infringed on civil liberties and freedom of association.
