Schiff, Flake Introduce Bipartisan bill, the „NSA Oversight Act“

(16.03.2006) The bill, the NSA OVERSIGHT ACT, would:

Reiterate Exclusivity of Current FISA and Wiretap Laws – states that FISA and the federal criminal wiretap statutes shall continue to be the exclusive means by which domestic electronic surveillance may be conducted.
Clarify Military Force Statute – makes clear that the Authorization to Use Military Force (AUMF), passed days after the September 11th attacks, does not provide an exception to that rule.
