A bill to amend the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 to extend the authorities of title VII of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978 through May 21, 2026, and for other purposes.
This bill extends the expiration date for certain surveillance authorities under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act from April 30, 2026, to May 21, 2026. It also requires the Director of National Intelligence to publicly release a specific court opinion regarding Section 702 of the Act by May 12, 2026, after redacting sensitive information. These changes directly affect the legal framework governing how the U.S. government conducts foreign intelligence surveillance and the transparency of related court rulings.
