This bill, H.R. 9238, proposes to extend certain surveillance authorities under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978 (FISA). It specifically amends the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 to prolong the duration of Title VII authorities , which govern foreign intelligence surveillance. The key provision changes the repeal date for these authorities from June 12, 2026 , to July 2, 2026 , effectively extending them by 20 days. This ensures that critical foreign intelligence collection provisions remain active for a longer period. The amendments will take effect on the earlier of the bill's enactment date or June 11, 2026.
