Senate Plans to Jam House on FISA Extension

Punchbowl News: “The House finally passed a FISA extension.”

“And moments later, the Senate made it official that they’ll completely ignore it.”

“A bill to extend FISA Section 702 for three years passed the House 235-191. Twenty-two Republicans voted no and 42 Democrats voted yes.”

“But Senate Majority Leader John Thune said late Wednesday that the Senate will likely consider a 45-day extension of FISA. It would give congressional leaders through June 12 to come up with a longer-term plan.”
