The US House on Wednesday narrowly rejected legislation to kill the National Security Agency's universal collection of telephone calling data on every call made inside the United States as part of the effort to intercept potential terrorists' communications.

Bill to kill surveillance programs narrowly rejected 1374711690963

The proposal by Representative Justin Amash, R-Michigan, to end authority for NSA's telephone meta-data collection of telephone records under the post-9/11 Patriot Act failed on a vote of 205 to 217.

In a face-saving move that could help lawmakers showcase their response to mounting controversy over domestic surveillance, the House overwhelmingly approved legislation to "clarify" the NSA’s powers on a vote of 409 to 12.

"This is not a fig leaf," insisted Representative Mike Pompeo, R-Kansas, a member of the House Intelligence Committee. "It is intended to clarify what has been said and what has been authorised."
