ericjmorey, 1 month ago The bill in question is H.R. 7888: Reforming Intelligence and Securing America Act: To reform the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978. The concerning section of the text of the bill in question. Elizabeth Goitein’s claims are not correct as the amendment is more narrowly defined than she has claimed. But the amendment is still overly broad and an inappropriate overreach of government surveillance. Elizabeth Goitein is Co-director of the Liberty and National Security Program at the Brennan Center for Justice. FYI, the article got the date of the House vote incorrect (it was Friday April 12, not Saturday April 13).
