GOP presses three-year 702 extension as Trump intel pick sparks Democratic alarm
TL;DR Summary
Senate Republicans circulated a three-year extension of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act with new guardrails and penalties, extending the program through June 12, 2029, and adding a three-year ban on a Federal Reserve digital currency, while omitting key privacy hawk demands like warrants for Americans in overseas databases and bans on data-broker purchases without warrants. The effort coincides with Democrats’ concerns over Trump’s pick Bill Pulte as acting DNI, complicating prospects for renewal before the June deadline amid broader GOP debates over immigration enforcement and funding.
