Republicans are locked in a fractious fight over extending Section 702 of FISA, with hard-liners demanding guardrails (and a CBDC ban) while Trump seeks a clean, multi-year extension. After multiple failed House votes, lawmakers approved a short-term 10-day extension to avert expiration, but internal divisions threaten to derail DHS funding and budget reconciliation efforts as April 30 nears, leaving Senate leaders to potentially intervene.
