This enacted law amends the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 to extend the authorities in Title VII of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (50 U.S.C. 1881 et seq.). It changes the repeal date and related text so that Title VII is repealed effective April 30, 2026, and it updates transition procedure language in sections that reference Title VII. The changes amend provisions that had tied certain effective dates to prior enactments and replace those references with the fixed April 30, 2026, repeal date. The amendments take effect on the earlier of the date of enactment or April 19, 2026. The measure was approved on April 18, 2026.
The extension keeps the existing Title VII authorities in place through April 30, 2026. Agencies and programs that operate under those Title VII authorities continue to have that legal basis until that date.
