The Biden administration has limited time to win the reauthorization of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, a controversial surveillance program. The program allows U.S. intelligence agencies to collect the communications of foreigners overseas without a warrant. The program is set to expire at the end of December unless a deal is reached between the White House and Congress. Administration officials argue for its importance, while civil liberties advocates call for changes to protect privacy.
With just seven weeks until the end of the year, the Biden administration is running out of time to win the reauthorization of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act . The law allows U.S. intelligence agencies to collect the communications of foreigners overseas suspected of posing a national security threat without a warrant. The program is set to expire at the end of December unless a deal is reached between the White House and Congress.
While administration officials argue that the program is crucial for collecting intelligence, civil liberties advocates argue that it infringes on the privacy of ordinary Americans and call for changes before reauthorization
