House votes to extend Patriot Act surveillance powers
« Feb 17, 2011    01:41:31 AM »
The US House of Representatives has agreed to extend some of surveillance powers granted by the 2001 Patriot Act after the 9/11 attacks.

In a 275-144 vote, the chamber voted to extend until December provisions on wiretaps, access to business records and surveillance of terror suspects.

The White House backed the bill, but would have favoured a longer extension.

The bill failed a vote last week, when it was brought to the floor under rules requiring a two-thirds majority.
