Trump Signs Stopgap FISA Extension After Senate Blocks Long-Term Renewal

President Trump signed a 45-day extension of FISA Section 702 after the Senate rejected a House-passed three-year renewal that included a CBDC ban. This temporary measure maintains current surveillance authorities while highlighting legislative gridlock on digital privacy and economic policy. The move underscores the administration's continued push for expansive data access despite bipartisan concerns over long-term oversight.
