Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would extend the government's authority under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, which allows intelligence agencies to collect communications of non-U.S. persons located outside the United States. The current authority is set to end two years after the Reforming Intelligence and Securing America Act became law. The bill would replace that end date with April 20, 2029. It also makes a matching change to a related section heading in the FISA Amendments Act of 2008.
