The House of Representatives failed to renew FISA Section 702, a surveillance law that allows U.S. spy agencies to collect foreigners' communications.

Congress is struggling to extend a key surveillance law — in part due to privacy concerns and to Trump's pick of Bill Pulte for spy chief.

Senate Democrats and seven Republicans voted 47-52 to block FISA Section 702 extension ahead of its June 12 expiration, demanding warrant reforms.

Democrats withheld their support for the measure over Trump’s appointment of Bill Pulte as acting director of national intelligence.
