Continued Oversight of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act : Hearing Before the S. Committee on the Judiciary, 113th Cong., October 2, 2013 (Statement by Professor Carrie F. Cordero, Geo. U. L. Center)

Abstract

From my perspective, the challenge for members of this Committee is to identify whether there are actual problems with either the law or process, and then craft remedies that address those specific issues. I am here to urge caution in implementing “quick fixes” that may sound appealing based on public or media-driven pressure, but that could have lasting consequences at a practical level that could negatively impact Intelligence Community operations and the nation’s security for years to come
