The House will pick up where we left off on reauthorizing FISA, Section 702... and we're going to continue to work out a longer-term extension.
Reauthorize FISA Section 702 with a longer-term extension.
Occurrences
Evidence
Johnson said, "Congress was able to pass a short-term extension of Section 702 last week, and we're going to continue to work out a longer-term extension."
The White House said the President signed S. 4465, which "amends the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 to extend the authorities of title VII of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978."
The House passed S. 1318; the record states the bill would strike "April 30, 2026" and insert "April 30, 2029" for Title VII repeal.
Assessments
The promise was to reauthorize FISA Section 702 with a longer-term extension. The evidence shows Johnson publicly committed to pursuing a longer-term extension after a short-term extension, the House approved legislation extending Title VII authorities from April 30, 2026 to April 30, 2029, and the President signed the extension into law on April 30, 2026. Because Johnson was serving in federal office during the passage and the outcome occurred in the same term, this counts as delivered with same_term timing. The effort badge is warranted because he publicly advanced the effort as Speaker/House leader before enactment.
