Testimony
Legislative Changes to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act
September 26, 2013, Benjamin Wittes
Benjamin Wittes testifies before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence on Thursday September 26, 2013. Wittes describes the major opportunities that now exist for—as President Obama put it—greater transparency, enhanced oversight, and additional constraint on intelligence collection under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) in the wake of the unauthorized disclosures this summer by Edward Snowden and the material declassified by the Executive Branch in response.
