Latest action on S. 4764: Read twice and referred to the Select Committee on Intelligence.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects federal intelligence and law enforcement agencies that use Title VII powers for foreign intelligence work. It also matters for people concerned about privacy and civil liberties, because the same surveillance rules would stay in place for about three more weeks. Congress is also affected because the bill gives lawmakers a short window to keep debating a longer renewal or changes.

Why this matters: This matters because the government would not lose these foreign intelligence tools on June 12, 2026. Agencies could keep using the same Title VII powers for a short time. Supporters may see that as important for tracking foreign threats. Critics may see it as continuing surveillance powers without adding new privacy protections.

Key provisions in S. 4764

  • Title VII surveillance powers would last until July 2, 2026. They are now set to end on June 12, 2026.
  • The bill updates the same date in two places in current law. One is tied to foreign intelligence law, and one is tied to federal wiretap law.
  • The date change starts on whichever comes first: the day this bill becomes law or June 11, 2026.
  • The bill does not change what Title VII allows or how agencies must use it. It only changes when the powers expire.
  • All current Title VII limits and requirements would stay in place during the extra time.
