AI Summary
This bill, the Protect Liberty and End Warrantless Surveillance Act of 2023, aims to reform certain authorities and provide greater transparency and oversight of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) of 1978. Key provisions include: limiting the eligibility of FBI personnel to conduct U.S. person queries, prohibiting warrantless queries for communications of U.S. persons and persons in the U.S., requiring documentation for such queries, reforming the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to expand the use of amici curiae and allow them to seek review of decisions, increasing penalties for civil actions, establishing accountability procedures for FBI query violations, and enhancing annual reporting requirements. The bill also imposes limits on foreign intelligence surveillance conducted outside of FISA authorities.
