Legislation set to be introduced in Congress this week would extend Section 702 surveillance of people applying for green cards, asylum, and some visas—subjecting loved ones to similar intrusions.

    The wealth of data collected under the 702 program is imponderable. US intelligence agencies have repeatedly claimed there are no means by which to calculate how often Americans are wiretapped without violating procedures.

    But having the means to track down 16 billion of the Sackler family’s hidden assets is utterly impossible.

    Article is paywalled. I’m curious how this proposal affects American citizens married to non-US citizens (such as green card holders).

      Oddly I didn’t get the paywall, I’d post a link with a non-paywalled version but I don’t know how.
