Presidente Bush hizo descarrilar una cuenta del congreso de los E.E.U.U. dirigido terminando la interceptación de teléfonos ilegal de la administración no proporcionando los documentos relacionados con el programa warrantless de la interceptación de teléfonos del presidente al comité de la inteligencia del senado que está repasando actualmente la legislación propuesta.
La cámara de los E.E.U.U. de representantes el mes pasado pasó el acto de la autorización de la inteligencia para la cuenta del ejercicio económico 2008 con una enmienda que acto de la vigilancia de la inteligencia extranjera de las marcas de 1978 (FISA) los únicos medios por los cuales la vigilancia electrónica doméstica con el fin de recopilar la información de la inteligencia extranjera puede ser conducida.
The bill has been referred to the Senate Intelligence Committee, but the Committee is unable to proceed as the White House has repeatedly refused to hand over the relevant documents.
“Another critical priority for congressional oversight is government wiretapping of Americans, conducted under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, and, illegally, under the President’s warrantless wiretapping program,” Senator Russ Feingold said. “When the program was finally placed within the FISA process, an opportunity arose for the Administration and the Congress to move forward, under the law. Unfortunately, the Administration has yet to demonstrate a real interest in doing so.”
Feingold accused the Administration of seeking broad new authorities unrelated to keeping FISA up-todate with new technology, and pursuing these authorities while refusing to rule out further surveillance activities entirely outside of the law.
“For more than four years, the Administration failed to inform the full congressional intelligence committees of the warrantless wiretapping program,” said the Senator who cosponsored an ammendment by co-sponsor by Senator Feinstein to ensure that all members of the Committee receive, at a minimum, summary information about programs that the Administration has sought to limit to the Chairman and Vice Chairman. “In doing so, the Administration violated the National Security Act, which allows restricted notification to the “Gang of Eight” only in certain limited cases involving covert action.”
In 2005 Bush acknowledged that he authorised the National Security Agency in 2002 to eavesdrop on US citizens communicating with people overseas.
