Congress lets part of spy law lapse. What's next for counterterrorism efforts?
At a time of heightened security risks, renewal of a prominent intelligence tool is caught in a standoff between Congress and President Donald Trump.
At 12:01 a.m. on Saturday, the U.S. government’s authorization to monitor communications of noncitizens outside the country without a warrant – seen by some as a key counterterrorism tool – expired.
Congress did not renew Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) in part because of a standoff with President Donald Trump over filling the role of director of national intelligence. The expiration doesn’t necessarily mean U.S. intelligence agencies no longer have that tool, because the provision was court-approved in March for another year.
