Update from the AP:
President Obama has signed a one-year extension of several provisions in the nation’s main counter terrorism law, the Patriot Act. Provisions in the measure would have expired on Sunday February 28th without Obama’s signature Saturday….
His signature comes after the House voted 315 to 97 Thursday to extend the measure. The Senate also approved the measure, with privacy protections cast aside when Senate Democrats lacked the necessary 60-vote supermajority to pass them.
