Hoyer Statement on the USA Freedom Act
WASHINGTON, DC - House Democratic Whip Steny H. Hoyer (MD) released the following statement today after Senate Republicans failed to pass the USA Freedom Act before national security protections expired last night:
"I am deeply disappointed that the new Senate Republican Majority has taken the irresponsible route of allowing key national security protections to expire. The House overwhelmingly passed a bipartisan bill that included responsible reforms in order to protect our national security while safeguarding privacy rights. I urge the Senate to act swiftly and adopt the House bill."
