Episode Synopsis

On March 15, 2020, certain authorities under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) will expire absent renewal by Congress. The authorities set to expire fall into three categories: 1) the business records provision (often referred to as Section 215) that allows for collection of call detail records, among other things; 2) roving wiretaps; and 3) the lone wolf provision. Former Congressman Bob Goodlatte (R, VA-6) who served as the Chair of the House Judiciary Committee will share his views of how he expects Congress will address the renewal of these authorities and his recommendations for reforms to FISA. Please join us for this timely discussion. Featuring: Hon. Bob Goodlatte, Former Congressman, United States House of Representatives Moderator: Matthew R. A. Heiman, Senior Fellow and Associate Director for Global Security, National Security Institute Please dial 888-752-3232 to access the call.
