PPSA calls on Senators to vote against invoking cloture and to extend these authorities so members can debate and vote on reform amendments.

3/16/2020

 
​Reps. Zoe Lofgren and Warren Davidson served notice on the Senate that the current version of the USA FREEDOM Reauthorization Act of 2020, which would reauthorize FISA’s problematic business records authority (Section 215), was not marked up or passed out of any committee of jurisdiction in the House.
 
“In other words, there was not an opportunity to amend or cure defects in this bill.”
 
Nor was Sen. Mike Lee allowed to offer any amendments last week.
 
“If cloture is invoked tonight, it will be the final success of a campaign to prevent any member of Congress from casting any vote for serious FISA reform.”
