1. Here ya go

But you have to refer to the Original Bill and the FISA Act of 1978.

4. So it's saying authorization to collecting data goes only as far

as the one person under investigation.

Thanks for helping!

6. Yes, which fundamentally changes the purpose

and effectiveness of the NSA. Instead of finding and alerting us to potential threats, it is relegated to only working on known EXISTING threats. the question is, how do we find out about those threats in the first place?

5. NSA issues weigh on military budget bill

Amash, along with members in both parties, has offered two different amendments to the military's budget bill for next year, which would not allow the NSA to conduct certain surveillance - here is the text of both amendments:

"None of the funds made available by this Act may be used to collect tangible things pursuant to an order under section 501 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978 (50 U.S.C. 1861) if such things do not pertain to a person who is the subject of an investigation described in such section."

"None of the funds made available by this Act may be used to execute a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court order pursuant to section 501 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978 (50 U.S.C. 1861) that does not include the following sentence: ‘‘This Order limits the collection of any tangible things (including tele7 phone numbers dialed, telephone numbers of incoming calls, and the duration of calls) that may be authorized to be collected pursuant to this Order to those tangible things that pertain to a person who is the subject of an investigation described in section 501 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978 (50 U.S.C. 1861)."

I'm not sure which version was voted on.
