A bill to amend the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 to provide for an extension of certain authorities under title VII of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978.
This bill (S 4197) extends the expiration dates for certain surveillance authorities under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). It changes the deadline from April 19, 2024, to May 17, 2024, in two specific provisions (FISA Amendments Act sections 403(b) and 404(b)(1)), with retroactive effect to April 18, 2024. The bill makes no substantive changes to surveillance law - only adjusts the timing of existing authorities. It directly affects the operation of FISA surveillance programs authorized under Title VII of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978.
