"The House on Wednesday evening passed a three-year extension of the program, with GOP leaders adding a ban on a central bank digital currency to appease conservative holdouts."
"Despite the House's approval, the Senate faced bipartisan opposition to the central bank digital currency ban, resulting in the passage of a 45-day patch instead."
"Congress had previously passed an initial short-term FISA extension, but the first patch was not enough time to secure a full extension of the program."
A group of lawmakers is insisting on warrant requirements for a bill that has passed with a vote of 261-111. The House approved a three-year extension of the program, while GOP leaders included a ban on central bank digital currency to appease conservative members. This provision faced bipartisan opposition in the Senate, leading to the passage of a 45-day extension instead. Congress had previously passed a short-term FISA extension, but it was insufficient for a full renewal, leaving leaders with 45 days to resolve the issue.
