Senate Republicans propose 3-year extension of key surveillance power
Senate Republicans are proposing a three-year extension of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act through June 12, 2029, with new guardrails and penalties for intelligence abuses. The bill includes a three-year ban on the Federal Reserve issuing a digital currency and faces challenges from privacy advocates and concerns over President Donald Trump’s appointment of Bill Pulte as acting director of national intelligence.
