Description
I. INTRODUCTION In December of 2005, the New York Times first reported that President George W. Bush had secretly authorized the National Security Agency ("NSA") to conduct warrantless domestic surveillance in an effort to combat terrorism. (1) Almost immediately, the story ignited controversy and national debate over the program and whether it violated any of a number of statutes, orders, and federal court decisions which make up the U.S. foreign intelligence legal regime. This Note discusses this regime and the capabilities of the agencies which operate under its purview.
