House passes short-term extension of FISA Section 702 surveillance authority after Republican opposition blocks longer renewal
The House passed a temporary extension of FISA Section 702 until April 30 after a group of about 20 Republicans blocked Speaker Mike Johnson's attempt to pass a longer-term renewal of the surveillance program. The short-term extension was approved by unanimous consent in the early morning hours after procedural votes on multi-year extensions failed due to GOP infighting over privacy concerns and warrant requirements.
