Dear Colleague:
Three provisions of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978
(FISA) will sunset on February 28, 2011. Two -one on roving authority for
electronic surveillance and the other on the acquisition of business records that are
relevant to investigations to protect against international terrorism or espionage were added to FISA by the USA PATRIOT Act. The third, on "lone wolf''
authority under FISA, was added by the Intelligence Reform Act of 2004.

.

Members of our Committee have previously requested that the Executive
Branch permit each Member of Congress access to information on the nature and
significance of the intelligence authority on which they are asked to vote. In
response, last year the Attorney General and the Director of National Intelligence
(DNI) provided a classified report to the House and Senate Intelligence
Committees in advance of the previous sunset date ofFebruary 28,2010. At the
request of our Committee, the Attorney General and DNI have now provided an
updated classified report for review by Members in connection with this year's
February 28, 2011 sunset. As was requested last year, they have asked that any
interested Member review this report in a secure setting.
We invite each Senator to read this classified report in our committee spaces
in Room 211, Hart Senate Office Building. The Attorney General and DNI have
offered to make Justice Department and Intelligence Community personnel
available to meet with any Member who has questions. We will be pleased to
make our staff available for the same puipose. Please contact our Security
Director, James Wolfe, at 224-1751, to arrange to read the report.
Sincerely,

.,

...-
