Washington, D.C. — Today, Rep. Barry Moore took a stand against the reauthorization of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) without a warrant requirement. Moore's opposition stems from concerns about FISA being utilized to unlawfully search and surveil Americans' data.

In a statement, Moore expressed his strong stance, saying, "This legislation is called the 'Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act,' but it has been used hundreds of thousands of times to violate Americans' Fourth Amendment rights and spy on them without a warrant." He emphasized his refusal to support legislation that would enable the intelligence community to spy on American citizens without proper oversight.

Furthermore, Moore highlighted the misuse of FISA, stating, "I refuse to support legislation that allows the intelligence community, who has recently spent its resources weaponizing against pro-life grandmothers, concerned parents at school board meetings, Catholics, and Biden's political opponents, to freely spy on American citizens."

Moore's vocal opposition to the reauthorization of FISA without a warrant requirement underscores his commitment to protecting Americans' privacy rights and ensuring that surveillance activities are conducted within legal boundaries.
