US President George W. Bush (R) and Vice President Dick Cheney walk to the Rose Garden on July 10, 2008 for Bush to sign H.R. 6304, the FISA Amendments Act of 2008, at the White House in Washington, DC. The bill would expand legal authority for electronic wiretaps by spy agencies and includes retroactive immunity for telecommunications firms which aided warrantless government surveillance operations following the September 11 attacks.
