,,iv #aahth ,,congress #ast ,session ,h4 ,,res4 #egg ,,in ,,the ,,house ,,of ,,representatives ,july #aa1 #bjbc,mr4 ,gaetz 7for himself1 ,ms4 ,greene of ,georgia1 ,mr4 ,gosar1 ,mr4 ,massie1 ,mr4 ,crane1 ,mr4 ,rosendale1 ,mr4 ,biggs1 and ,mrs4 ,luna7 submitted the following resolution2 which was referred to the ,committee on the ,judiciary1 and in addition to the ,permanent ,select ,committee on ,intelligence1 for a period to be subsequently determined by the ,speaker1 in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned ,,resolution ,expressing the sense of the ,house of ,representatives that authorities under section #gjb of the ,foreign ,intelligence ,surveillance ,act of #aigh should be allowed to expire4 ,whereas section #gjb of the ,foreign ,intelligence ,surveillance ,act of #aigh 7#ej ,u4,s4,c4 #ahha;a7 was added by the ,,fisa ,amendments ,act of #bjjh 7,public ,law #aaj-bfa2 #abb ,stat4 #bdch72 ,whereas the ,,fisa ,amendments ,reauthorization ,act of #bjag extended section #gjb authorities until ,december #ca1 #bjbc2 ,whereas absent congressional action1 section #gjb authorities will sunset at the end of the year2 ,whereas the ,intelligence ,community has not been forthright about its use of section #gjb authorities over the #ae years that section #gjb has been authorized2 ,whereas both ,houses of ,congress have repeatedly sought to exercise their constitutional1 article ,i authority to conduct oversight of executive branch use of section #gjb authorities1 and the ,department of ,justice1 including the ,federal ,bureau of ,investigation 7,,fbi71 has repeatedly and over multiple ,congresses1 failed to produce lawfully requested documents and witnesses to both ,houses of ,congress2 ,whereas what information ,congress has related to section #gjb authorities is often obtained from news reports1 whistleblower materials1 and even when produced is often heavily redacted2 ,whereas what data ,congress have on section #gjb practice are often incomplete1 in part due to the ,department of ,justice itself failing for #ba months to comply with the plain language of section #aab of the ,,fisa ,amendments ,reauthorization ,act of #bjag1 mandating that the agency keep a count of its section #gjb queries of ,united ,states person data1 until two ,federal courts held that they were required to do so2 ,whereas this ,congress is aware of multiple abuses of the section #gjb data collection process through released court decisions and aggregated data1 which in itself is an adequate basis to sunset the program2 ,whereas the ,national ,security ,agency acquires more than #bej1jjj1jjj internet communications every year pursuant to section #gjb2 ,whereas the ,,fbi itself has conducted #gjb queries with callous disregard of the privacy rights of ,americans1 as evidenced by a redacted ,foreign ,intelligence ,surveillance ,court 7,,fisc7 opinion of ,april #ba1 #bjbb1 including-- 7#a7 by conducting queries using #f1hjj ,social ,security numbers2 7#b7 by running a batch query in ,june #bjbj of unminimized ,,fisa information using identifiers of #acc individuals arrested in connection with civil unrest and protests between approximately ,may #cj1 and ,june #ah1 #bjbj without any specific potential connections to terrorist related activity known to those who conducted the queries2 7#c7 by conducting a batch query for over #ai1jjj donors to a congressional campaign2 7#d7 by regularly querying queried unminimized ,,fisa information using identifiers of individuals listed in local police homicide reports1 including victims1 family members1 witnesses1 and suspects with no evidence of criminal activity2 7#e7 by conducting batch queries consisting of #bc1acb separate queries1 using presumed ,united ,states-person query terms1 and running said queries against unminimized section #gjb information1 although the ,,fbi analyst conducting the queries had no indications of foreign influence related to the query terms used2 and 7#f7 by conducting in excess of #bgh1jjj noncompliant queries of raw ,,fisa-acquired information2 ,whereas that ,,fisc court opinion concluded that across the ,,fbi1 the government has reported queries of raw ,,fisa-acquired information as a part of routine baseline checks in order to determine whether there was any information regarding the subject of the query in ,,fbi holdings1 without a specific factual basis to believe the query was reasonably likely to return foreign intelligence information or evidence of a crime42 ,whereas current oversight work of the #aahth ,congress does evidence that this pattern of abuses1 in particular by the ,,fbi1 are not incidental1 but rather a pattern of behavior warranting the sunset of section #gjb2 ,whereas even ,,fisc ,judge ,james ,e4 ,boasberg in a #bjah ruling observed that a large number of #gjb queries evidenceed a misunderstanding of the querying standard--or indifference toward it2 ,whereas numerous ,american intelligence1 law enforcement1 academic1 and civil liberties groups have expressed sustained concern over the law and practice of section #gjb collection2 ,whereas there is no indication that traditional ,,fisa authorizations1 requiring a warrant1 are not up to the task of protecting ,american national security while also protecting ,american civil liberties2 ,whereas traditional ,,fisa authorities are more protective of ,american civil liberties1 including-- 7#a7 by requiring close involvement of article ,,iii judges2 7#b7 by requiring approval both of the ,attorney ,general and a judge2 7#c7 by requiring an attestation that ordinary methods of information collection would not work1 prior to having a warrant approved2 and 7#d7 by having time limits on surveillance2 and ,whereas no government component has ever provided evidence that section #gjb has produced better outcomes than traditional ,,fisa3 ,now1 therefore1 be it ,that it is the sense of the ,house of ,representatives that the authorities under section #gjb of the ,foreign ,intelligence ,surveillance ,act of #aigh should be allowed to expire at the end of this calendar year4
