Finalized FISA 702 (foreign intelligence surveillance authority) compromise includes Federal Reserve CBDC (central bank digital currency) ban

According to the post, Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Tom Cotton's compromise text carries a Federal Reserve (U.S. central bank) CBDC (central bank digital currency) ban first included in a housing bill and is expected to become law.

Fact Check
Eleanor Terrett's X post (a recognized financial-regulation reporter) directly states the finalized FISA 702 compromise from Sen. Tom Cotton includes a Federal Reserve CBDC ban moved over from the housing bill, with sunset moved up to June 12, 2029. The Congressional Record from April 29, 2026 corroborates that an Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act was attached to the underlying FISA 702 bill, supporting the bundling described. Confidence is medium rather than high because the claim references finalized text that we did not retrieve verbatim, and the assertion that it 'will become law' is forward-looking.
