Conservative holdouts on Thursday appear to be warming to modifications proposed to the legislation reauthorizing the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, following a procedural vote that resulted in an embarrassing defeat for House Republican leadership.
The new version of the bill, which is now a two-year reauthorization instead of five years, has garnered support from conservatives. This change means that if former President Donald Trump were to win the presidential election this year, the legislation would be up for review during his potential second term, allowing for potential revisions to FISA laws.
