Senate to discuss controversial foreign surveillance laws with U.S. intel chiefs
By Dan Boylan - The Washington Times - Friday, June 2, 2017
Senators said Friday they want the top U.S. intelligence officials to testify next week on laws governing the scope of government spying and collection of foreign intelligence.
The issue is of pressing importance given that key provisions of the controversial regulations will expire at the end of this year.
Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr, and the committee’s ranking Democrat, Mark Warner, have requested Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats, acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe, National Security Agency Director Mike Rogers and Deputy U.S. Attorney General Rod Rosenstein testify in both public and closed-door hearings Wednesday.
