It is vitally important that the government's intelligence and law enforcement officials coordinate their efforts to protect America from foreign threats to our national security. These actions were expressly authorized by the USA PATRIOT Act and the Nov. 18, 2002 decision of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review." 03-176
