Don't you think it would have been better to let it expire. and start from scratch. You do realize that they will never stop abusing the power that was given to them after 9/11 it would be better to start looking into there is nothing patriot about it just took our rights away

We need accountability clauses. There can be no more weasel Comey, or duper’s delight Strzok types getting away with violating our rights

The ‘hold bad actors accountable’ is the best part of this bill. Too much f*ckery going on in government and punishments are seldom seen.

I don’t buy it. It was already illegal to spy on us without a warrant and they did anyways.

Keep going, the 4th must be observed. Too many are being targeted, next we'll have thought police, just think something and be put in jail. If you all don't start standing up for the Bill of Rights and Constitution, we won't have a Republic anymore. Ironic as well, some are out there hurting people and going through the cracks as the DOJ rounds up grand mothers and others for existing.

No. Need to stop this madness in its’ entirety. You’re weaponizing the government against it’s’ own citizens. Unacceptable!
Replying to @Jim_Jordan
But we already have the 4th Amendment? What has this lawless congress and its minions been doing that we had to reassert these rights?

I totally disagree with this, the FBI should not have access to any of this information without a warrant. The CIA can hide any American person from anything that is shared with the FBI period "full stop", if they want to routinely unmask people that are in contact with a foreign individual, they could get a warrant on that individual as well.
