Darin LaHood Voted to Let the FBI Read Americans' Messages Without a Warrant
In April 2024 LaHood voted against requiring the FBI to get a warrant before searching Americans' communications — the amendment failed on a 212-212 tie. In March 2026 he pushed a 'clean' renewal with no warrant requirement. A year before that first vote, he had revealed the FBI improperly searched the database for his own name, and called renewal without reform a non-starter.
