We applaud the House's bipartisan passage of legislation to reauthorize one of our nation's most critical intelligence authorities, Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). The Reforming Intelligence and Securing America Act ensures that the Intelligence Community has the tools that it needs to identify and disrupt threats to the American people from hostile nation states, terrorist organizations, hackers, spies, and more. It also includes some of the most significant reforms in the history of FISA to strengthen oversight of how the authority is used and to protect privacy. We encourage the Senate to swiftly pass this bill before the authority expires on April 19.
