House advances FISA bill before Speaker Johnson's meeting with Trump

It took a little while, but the House has voted to reauthorize the nation’s warrantless surveillance powers, after a GOP standoff over the issue led by former President Trump.

The chamber cleared the bill to extend and reform the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) in a 273-147 vote just one week before the existing legislation was set to expire.

Trump had urged lawmakers to "KILL FISA" earlier this week, which led to some of his allies in the House voting down the initial bill. Senate Republicans expressed frustration at the former president's interference, saying they were "disappointed" by his comments.

Passage of the FISA legislation marks a win for Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), who had struggled for months to navigate a compromise on the issue, over the warrantless surveillance authority. (The Hill)

While the House went along with Trump's efforts, Republican senators were a little less accommodating.

Trump says Arizona court went 'too far' on abortion

Former President Trump wants Arizona lawmakers to act “as fast as possible” to reverse the state’s strict abortion ban after a state Supreme Court ruling upheld an 1864 law that made most abortions illegal.

“The Supreme Court in Arizona went too far on their Abortion Ruling, enacting and approving an inappropriate Law from 1864,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “So now the Governor and the Arizona Legislature must use HEART, COMMON SENSE, and ACT IMMEDIATELY, to remedy what has happened.”

The comments are the latest fallout of the decision, which has left Republicans scrambling to respond as Democrats relentlessly hammer Trump on the issue of abortion. (The Hill)

There are several big questions that loom, and The Hill's Niall Stanage has the breakdown here.

 

Third tribal nation bans South Dakota governor from reservation

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) has now been banned from three tribal nations' reservations after the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Council voted to bar the governor from its lands after she made "racially charged" comments regarding the tribe.

Standing Rock Sioux Tribal Chair Janet Alkire said Noem's comments, which allege tribal leaders are "personally benefitting" from Mexican drug cartels that are operating on reservations, are "irresponsible" and a “sad reflection of her fear-based politics that do nothing to bring people together to solve problems.”

The Oglala Sioux Tribe voted to ban Noem in February, and The Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe banned her last week, both due to comments she made at the U.S.-Mexico border. (The Hill)
