Provision in Wiretap Bill Extends Surveillance to End of '08
Katherine Shrader reports for The Associated Press that, thanks to a little-noticed provision of the FISA bill, the Bush administration's new eavesdropping power may last longer than six months. While the law expires in February unless Congress acts to extend it, any surveillance orders that are in place when it sunsets can last up to a full year, for the rest of Bush's tenure.
