Sen. Feinstein Defends NSA Call-Records Program, Says There is "Extensive" Oversight

"The call-records program is not surveillance"

|

The NSA call-records program is legal and subject to extensive congressional and judicial oversight. Above all, the program has been effective in helping to prevent terrorist plots against the U.S. and our allies. Congress should adopt reforms to improve transparency and privacy protections, but I believe the program should continue.
