The Anti-Defamation League and the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations wrote a letter to House Speaker Mike Johnson and Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries earlier this month urging them to pass the controversial FISA law to spy on Americans to “protect Israel.”
The FISA bill was described as “the biggest expansion of domestic surveillance since the Patriot Act” and included language to which could compel “an enormous range” of businesses to start acting as NSA spies.

Americans rose up and flooded Congress with calls to demand the bill be stopped or amended but it sailed through the House and Senate with zero changes as the will of the American public has no influence over the regime in Washington.
The ADL/Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations told Congress the spying law was needed first and foremost for “(1) the safety and security of Israel; and (2) the need to protect Jews in the U.S. — indeed, all Americans — from terrorist threats.”
“In the U.S., indications of foreign involvement in domestic antisemitic events in the wake of October 7 highlight the need for the Executive Branch to retain this vital tool,” the Jewish advocacy group said, likely alluding to anti-Israel protests.
They went on to say they’re “deeply concerned” about proposals to reign in the spying law by requiring a warrant to examine “information previously obtained through use of Section 702,” which they said would “hobble vital intelligence and law enforcement authorities.”
