‘It is no secret that the world remains dangerous. Terrorist groups remain as intent today as they did on September 11, 2001 on harming Americans and those working with us overseas. As the tragedies of that day become a more distant memory, we cannot grow lax and deny our defense and intelligence communities the tools and resources they require to prevent future attacks. I look forward to renewing the bipartisan consensus on this issue and voting to reauthorize this important provision soon.’
‘Bipartisan negotiations over the DACA issue and other issues in immigration policy are important, and they are ongoing. Our responsibility is to continue those discussions – not to jeopardize them by ginning up a manufactured crisis over an artificial deadline. We have until March – at least – to complete our ongoing negotiations on immigration. We have until Friday to fund the government. I urge my Democratic friends to honor their stated commitments and join in a bipartisan effort to keep the government funded and reauthorize S-CHIP for struggling families across America.’
The Senate will vote to advance the reauthorization of Title VII of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. This includes Section 702, one of the most important tools that our warfighters and intelligence professionals use to wage the war on terror and keep Americans safe. It allows the United States to collect communications from foreign terrorists who wish harm on America and our allies.
