Obama: NSA bulk data collection ‘not controversial’

(Washington Examiner) President Obama used his weekly radio address to call on the Senate to pass the USA Freedom Act. Without its passage, the National Security Agency’s (NSA) domestic surveillance program will expire June 1 along with the Patriot Act.

The USA Freedom Act, which passed the House, will extend most aspects of the Patriot Act. Currently, the NSA preserves meta-data from all American citizens’ phones for five years. The USA Freedom Act preserves the NSA’s ability to use the meta-data, but keeps the bulk records with phone companies who must preserve them for 18 months.
