On December 14th, 2023, Congress approved a short-term extension of the FBI's warrantless surveillance powers, with dozens of GOP senators voting with Democrats. The House also passed an annual defense bill including an extension of a controversial surveillance tool. Critics, including Ron Paul, labeled the move as unconstitutional and a betrayal to American citizens. The extension was opposed by civil libertarians and was passed without reforming the surveillance program.
