White House urges Senate to pass 'compromise' surveillance reform bill
WASHINGTON
The White House on Friday urged the Senate to pass a bill to narrow U.S. spy agencies' power to collect Americans' electronic data and business records, calling it a "reasonable compromise."
The House of Representatives already passed the USA Freedom Act, but Senate leaders want to instead renew an existing data collection program.
