Lawmakers have reached an agreement to temporarily extend the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) by four months, potentially saving the intelligence community from losing a key tool at the end of the year. The extension is to allow more time for reform or reauthorization. The House Intelligence Committee and House Judiciary Committee are working on competing versions of the FISA Section 702 reform bills, leading to a potential showdown. House Speaker Johnson is facing criticism from conservatives over the short-term extension of warrantless surveillance powers. The House Democrats are scheduled to receive a briefing on FISA by DNI Haines and NSA’s Nakasone. The proposed House intelligence bill has raised concerns about expanded warrantless surveillance. Congress is gearing up for a potential showdown over the reauthorization of the warrantless domestic spying program, which has been criticized by civil libertarians and misused by the FBI.
