Capito urges picking a permanent intelligence chief to resolve stalemate over surveillance act

The House failed to pass a short-term extension of Section 702, and the article says efforts in both chambers to pass a three-year extension had failed, with the law then lapsing.

Most recent lookback-window sign. The broader long-term reauthorization effort did not succeed, which cuts against the three-year portion of the claim. This is the strongest current indicator that the promise was not fully delivered.

The Senate reauthorized Section 702 just after the provision expired, keeping the surveillance authority alive.

This supports the 'support extending Section 702' part of the claim, but the article does not establish a three-year reauthorization. It shows the extension happened, but not at the requested duration.

The House approved the surveillance bill and said it would extend the program for two years, not the full five-year authorization first proposed.

This confirms that the enacted reauthorization was only two years, not three. It supports a partial match to the claim and shows why the three-year wording is not fully delivered.
