华盛顿，2月18日（路透社） – 环保组织”灭绝叛乱”（Extinction Rebellion）周三表示，该组织正受到美国联邦调查，过去一年中，其部分成员曾被联邦调查局（FBI）探员拜访，其中包括来自该局极端主义特别工作组的探员。
联邦调查局被要求置评时表示，根据司法部政策，既不能确认也不能否认正在开展特定调查。

该环保组织在一份声明中称：”2026年2月6日晚间，（纽约灭绝叛乱组织）一名前成员在其位于纽约市外200英里处的住所，被联邦调查局联合反恐特别工作组的两名特别探员拜访。”
声明称，探员询问了该前成员参与该环保组织纽约市分会的情况，该前成员将问题转交给了其律师。
该组织还表示，2025年3月，自称是联邦调查局成员的探员试图与6名与波士顿灭绝叛乱组织有关联的活动人士交谈，但之后没有进一步沟通。
该激进组织的声明没有提供更多细节，联邦调查局也未就其行动的性质和范围置评。
权利倡导者对唐纳德·特朗普总统任下的言论自由表示担忧，指出特朗普政府镇压支持巴勒斯坦的抗议活动（抗议美国盟友以色列对加沙的袭击），并威胁自由派非营利组织和反对其移民和气候政策等议程的团体。
特朗普政府常无证据地指责这些组织资助和策划政治暴力。气候倡导者批评特朗普削减国内气候法规以及美国退出全球环境协议。
该环保组织的全球网站称，它是一个”去中心化、国际性且政治无党派的运动，通过非暴力直接行动和公民抗命，说服各国政府在气候紧急情况下采取公正行动”。活动人士格蕾塔·通贝里（Greta Thunberg）此前曾参加该组织组织的行动。

WASHINGTON, Feb 18 (Reuters) – Environmental group Extinction Rebellion said on Wednesday it is under federal U.S. investigation and that some of its members have been visited by FBI agents, including from the agency’s task force on extremism, in the last year.
Asked for comment, the FBI said it can neither confirm nor deny conducting specific investigations, citing Justice Department policy.

“On the evening of February 6, 2026, a former member of (Extinction Rebellion NYC) was visited by two special agents from the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force at their residence, 200 miles outside of New York City,” the environmental group said in a statement.

The agents asked the former member about their involvement in the environmental group’s New York City chapter, the statement said, adding the former member referred questions to their attorney.
The group also said that in March 2025, agents identifying themselves as part of the FBI attempted to speak with six different activists affiliated with Extinction Rebellion Boston and that there was no follow-up communication.
The statement by the activist group did not have further details and the FBI did not comment on the nature and scope of its actions.
Rights advocates have raised free speech concerns under President Donald Trump’s administration, citing his crackdown on pro-Palestinian protests against U.S. ally Israel’s assault on Gaza, and his threats against liberal nonprofits and groups opposed to his agenda, including his immigration and climate policies.

The Trump administration has accused groups, often without evidence, of funding and organizing political violence. Climate advocates have criticized Trump’s cuts to domestic climate regulations and the U.S. withdrawal from global environmental accords.
The environmental group’s global website says it is a “decentralised, international and politically non-partisan movement using non-violent direct action and civil disobedience to persuade governments to act justly” on the climate emergency. Activist Greta Thunberg has previously attended actions organized by the group.
