WASHINGTON, DC - House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) said on Thursday that he is cancelling a vote on a bill to reauthorize three intelligence programs, marking the second day in a row that the legislation has been punted. "At the request of the Speaker of the House, I am withdrawing consideration of the FISA Act," Hoyer said in a statement. He also appeared to acknowledge that the bill would not have enough support to pass, noting that Republicans who previously supported it were now expected to oppose it. |
