Mary Miller votes No on FISA Spying Bill without Warrant Amendment | 2024-04-15 | 2024 | 2024-04 | Republican | House | IL | Mary E. Miller | M001211 | marymiller.house.gov | marymiller | https://marymiller.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, DC - After the House defeated a key amendment to the FISA spying reauthorization that would have required a warrant to spy on American citizens, Representative Miller voted NO on final passage and issued the following statement: “I voted against reauthorizing FISA without serious reforms to protect American citizens because FISA was abused during the Obama Administration to spy on the Trump campaign and spying authority has been abused by the Biden Administration to spy on Tucker Carlson for criticizing Biden’s policies. Obama and Biden officials cannot be allowed to abuse government power to spy on their political opponents without consequences, and I do not trust the Biden officials to adhere to the reforms in this bill because they are blatantly violating our immigration and border security laws daily. "We know Biden is lying when he says he needs warrantless spying powers to protect our national security because if Biden was serious about our national security, he would secure the southern border instead of allowing 10 million unvetted foreign nationals to walk into our country, including terrorists, murderers, and drug traffickers. "Just yesterday, it was reported that the Biden Administration allowed an Afghan terrorist to walk across our border and remain in our country for a year even though he was on the terror watch list. Keeping the border open but demanding warrantless spying powers because terrorists are walking across is like blowing a hole in your boat and demanding a bucket to bail out water. Biden’s open border is our greatest threat, and securing the border and deporting the illegal aliens who entered is the most important step we can take to protect American citizens.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T20:47:55Z |
