House Republicans passed a 10-day extension of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act's Section 702 after long-term renewals failed amid an intraparty revolt.
Lawmakers approved the stopgap in the House late Thursday night and the Senate quickly cleared the same 10-day patch, pushing the program's expiration from April 20 to April 30.
The short extension heads to President Trump after unanimous consent or voice votes averted a lapse while leaders regroup to seek a longer reauthorization.
