Center for Advanced Studies in Science and Technology Policy Executive Director Kim Taipale testified on “Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act Reform” before the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, U.S. House of Representatives, July 19, 2006 [Real Video]
S. 2453 – A bill to establish procedures for the review of electronic surveillance programs.
Center for American Progress: Wiretaps that Work, July 19, 2006. “Congress cannot responsibly determine whether or how to amend FISA without a thorough understanding of what the program does and why FISA cannot accommodate it. Leading members of the House and Senate Intelligence Committees, who have been briefed on the program, have said they see no reason why FISA is suddenly inadequate, and neither the president nor the authors of these bills have provided a satisfactory explanation as to why the changes they propose are necessary let alone, constitutional. Congress cannot and must not legislate until they do so.”
