""Three weeks is more than enough time to negotiate a reform bill," Thune said on the Senate floor on Thursday. "That is, if members are serious about negotiating.""
""We spent all night waiting around while Republicans fought among themselves," McGovern said. "We were told nearly at midnight on Monday to go home.""
Congress has reauthorized Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act for 45 days to allow for negotiations on reforms. The House approved the extension with minor reforms, excluding a warrant requirement. Senators expressed differing opinions on the extension length, with Ron Wyden advocating for three weeks and Tom Cotton supporting 45 days. The negotiations are expected to be challenging, as Rep. Jim McGovern criticized the process and internal conflicts among Republicans during the discussions.
