The Bush administration may have broken a law requiring broader congressional notification of intelligence activities when it authorized an NSA warrantless wiretapping program that snooped on American citizens after 9/11.布什政府可能已經違反了有關法律規定，廣泛國會通報情報活動時，它授權美國國家安全局開展竊聽計畫snooped對美國公民後， 9 / 11 。 The Hill山 reports 報告 today that Democrats are beginning to make noise over the White House’s decision to limit its disclosure of the NSA program to the “gang of eight” — the leaders of both parties from the House and the Senate and the chairs and ranking members of the intelligence committees in both houses of Congress.今天表示，民主派人士開始製造噪音超過白宮的決定，以限制其披露國家安全局的計劃， "四人幫八國" -雙方領導人由眾議院和參議院和椅子排名成員組成情報委員會在國會兩院的政黨。
For four years, only this small group of lawmakers was aware of the NSA program, which bypassed the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court in spying on Americans (with the help of major telecoms).四年來，只有這個小團體的國會議員知道國家安全局的計劃，繞開外國情報監視法院在刺探美國人（借助大型電信） 。 But the program may have circumvented a 1991但該計劃可能規避了1991年制訂的一項 law 法 that allows the administration to limit disclosure of its snooping only in highly sensitive cases involving covert activity overseas, not in instances of foreign or domestic intelligence gathering.允許行政部門只能披露其與窺探，只有在高度敏感的案件，涉及秘密活動，在海外，而不是在實例的外國或國內蒐集情報的工作。 Under the law, passed after the Iran-Contra scandal to give Congress better oversight of the executive branch, intelligence gathering must be reported to the full intelligence committees of the House and the Senate.根據法律規定，通過後，伊朗門，讓國會有更多的監督權的行政機關，蒐集情報，並要上報全部情報委員會的眾議院和參議院組成。
A Congressional Research Service國會研究服務局 report 報告 (.pdf) last year reaffirmed the conditions under which the president can withhold information from Congress and said that “the NSA surveillance program would appear to fall more closely under the definition of an intelligence collection program, rather than qualify as a covert action program as defined by statute.” （ PDF格式）去年重申了在何種條件下，總統可以扣壓資料，從國會，並說"國家安全局的監視計劃，將出現下跌，更加緊密地定義下的一個情報蒐集計劃，而不是有資格作為一個秘密行動計劃界定規約" 。
