House Leadership Considers 2-Year FISA Renewal to Win Over Critics
- House leadership considering shortening FISA reauthorization from 5 years to 2 years to win over skeptics
- New plan would bring FISA bill back through Rules Committee as a stand-alone measure, separate from other GOP bills
- Warrant requirement amendment will still get a vote, but not included in base text as some lawmakers wanted
- Shorter timeline could help gain support from those wanting more opportunities to reform policy
- Despite changes, House Minority Leader says Democrats won't help pass new rule after initial defeat
