🚨 The Supreme Court ruled that police conduct a Fourth Amendment search when they obtain data through a geofence warrant, holding that people have a reasonable expectation of privacy in their cell phone location data.
How much more does Congress need to see to understand that reform is the only path forward?
"There is no democracy without privacy. If the government can use the websites you visit, people you love and associate with, and places you go against you, the result will be catastrophic to each of us and America as we know it." ms.now/opinion/trump-…
FISA reform is long overdue. pogo.org/analyses/fisa-…
This is a must-read op-ed from POGO's surveillance expert @DonBellCT in @MSNOWNews. It's not about who leads ODNI-- it's about fixing the problems with our country's broken surveillance system. ms.now/opinion/trump-…
"Closing the backdoor search and data broker loopholes would ensure that no one — neither Pulte nor the president or anyone acting in our name as a public official — can steal our private information and use it to target us." -@DonBellCT ms.now/opinion/trump-…
The 42 @HouseDemocrats who have supported reauthorizing Section 702 without broadly popular, bipartisan reforms need to think about who they're empowering to surveil Americans. We joined more than 100 advocacy groups Thursday urging them to reconsider. theintercept.com/2026/06/11/dem…
.@SenMikeLee is right. Let’s make a deal, work out a warrant requirement, and fix FISA today.
Despite apocalyptic warnings from a deep state that wants unfettered domestic spying, FISA won’t cease protecting America even for years after it expires. We have time to agree on a warrant requirement to defend the privacy of American citizens and get FISA reauthorized.
FISA is set to expire today—but what does that mean for our national security and Americans’ privacy?🧵
No matter who is in charge of ODNI, serious FISA reforms need to happen ASAP. We can’t have ANYONE in the position to abuse our nation’s surveillance program. Full stop.
TRUMP announces JAY CLAYTON for DNI. If Trump announced this yesterday, it is possible that he could've gotten FISA extended.
Wyden already put a UC request on the floor to extend FISA 702 for several months with simple transparency measures added. Cornyn blocked it. They’d rather let FISA 702 expire than open the door to any meaningful reforms
Senate GOP Whip John Barrasso says Republicans will make UC request on Senate floor this afternoon to pass a temporary extension of FISA 702 powers. "There will be a unanimous consent offer and the goal is to get this completed so we don't put the country at risk," he says.
Huge win today in the FISA reform fight: a bipartisan majority of the House has REJECTED a “clean” reauthorization that would have done nothing to protect your privacy. We need to keep pushing Congress to do the right thing. Make your voice heard: act.pogo.org/a/tell-congres…
Going home until June 23 instead of staying in Washington and hammering out a real bipartisan deal says a lot about how worried Speaker Johnson & surveillance hawks are, doesn’t it?
After months of Chicken Little hysterics they’re now admitting what privacy experts and civil liberties advocates have been saying for MONTHS about the operational impact of a FISA 702 sunset…
Close the backdoor search loophole. Close the data broker loophole.
House Democratic Leaders Jeffries, Clark, Aguilar, Intel Ranking Member Himes & Judiciary Ranking Member Raskin announce this morning ahead of the 3-week FISA 702 extension vote: “There is a path to reauthorizing FISA, but it will require enacting meaningful reforms. We oppose
The FISC recertified the 702 program in March. It can continue for a year. Reformers have been saying this the entire time.
A lot of Hill Republicans believe the Trump admin can and will continue operating section 702 for some time, even if Congress fails to reauthorize — regardless of an executive order “That’s what I would do,” one House Republican said
@meredithllee It will continue to operate by law, because that's how the 702 statute is set up. NYT and CBO both confirm: nytimes.com/article/sectio… congress.gov/crs-product/R4… restorethe4th.com/lapse-not-a-th…
@Restore_the4th That’s exactly right. Should’ve dropped in the quotes 💯💯 Enough members seem to be finally waking up to the reality of how much of a disaster FISA has been for our Constitution and rights, but waking up isn’t enough—we need real reform now.
Reminder: the reauthorization of a program designed for foreign surveillance can’t pass…because members of Congress want the government to get a warrant if they engage in surveillance of Americans. Surveillance hawks won’t even allow a vote. They know they’d lose.
Sen. Wyden is offering some FISA extensions, one would require a warrant for queries of US citizens Sen. Cornyn is objecting, says it "makes no sense whatsoever"
Even if Pulte goes, a blank check for surveillance cannot be given to the executive branch @SenRubenGallego @SenMarkKelly. Close the backdoor search loophole Close the data broker loophole azcapitoltimes.com/news/2026/06/1…
It is vital that we keep pushing Congress to do the right thing. It's long past time to close the data broker loophole and protect your privacy. Make your voice heard: act.pogo.org/a/tell-congres…
After screaming all day about how important it is to renew FISA, surveillance hawk @JohnCornyn just objected to a fair deal from @RonWyden that would have renewed FISA in exchange for adding warrant requirements. Why are they so opposed to making the govt get a warrant?
