YOUTUBE (The Hill) - Will Congress extend spy powers? Thu Apr 23 17:51:19 2026

New deadline. Same problems. Lawmakers last week punted the battle to renew the nation’s spy powers for 10 days, extending not only the deadline to renew Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), but also the difficult discussions over how to reform it. The program allows the government to spy on foreigners located abroad, but privacy hawks want to require a warrant before authorities can review any information collected on Americans speaking with those being surveilled. #FISA #SpyPowers #Congress #CIA
