President Donald Trump has urged Republican members of Congress to unite and push forward a crucial vote on national spy powers. The President's call aims to secure the passage of a key surveillance law.
The White House is advocating for a clean extension of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), which is considered a central tool for American intelligence gathering. Congressional debate continues over the future of this vital surveillance authority.
U.S. intelligence officials are reportedly working to maintain the surveillance law's operation, especially amid rising tensions with Iran. This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
