House passes Patriot Act extension

Wisconsin's delegation split down the middle, along party lines, as the House voted today to reauthorize the Patriot Act. F. Jim Sensenbrenner, Mark Green, Paul Ryan, and Tom Petri all voted aye, while Gwen Moore, Tammy Baldwin, Dave Obey and Ron Kind voted no.

Action moves to the Senate, where Russ Feingold and others have threatened a filibuster. Renee Crawford has details.
