House Vote on FISA Spy Powers Collapses, Likely Leading to Expiration

A House vote on extending FISA surveillance powers failed to achieve a majority. Lawmakers from both parties withdrew support, causing the vote to collapse. Without renewal, the existing FISA powers are set to expire. The failure marks a rare bipartisan disagreement on intelligence legislation. Critics argue the powers lack sufficient oversight. Supporters contend they are essential for national security. The deadline for expiration is approaching later this year. Lawmakers are expected to negotiate a new framework.
