Washington, May 10 (RHC)-- The U.S. House of Representatives has advance a measure that would curb the bulk collection of phone records by the National Security Agency.

The USA Freedom Act would limit the NSA’s powers to collect phone records on a mass scale, although not entirely. It is co-authored by Republican Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner of Wisconsin, co-author of the USA PATRIOT Act.

On Wednesday, the House Judiciary Committee sent the bill to the House floor with a unanimous 32-to-0 bipartisan vote. It is the first surveillance reform measure to make it out of committee to the House floor.
