To protect the separation of powers enshrined in the United States Constitution and end the weaponized surveillance of Members of Congress.

What happened and its current status: On June 2, 2026, Representative Mike Kelly (R-PA) introduced HR9098, titled 'To protect the separation of powers enshrined in the United States Constitution and end the weaponized surveillance of Members of Congress.' The bill was referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary. It is in the earliest legislative stage — introduction and committee referral. No hearings, markups, or floor votes have occurred, and no companion bill has been introduced in the Senate. The bill has 6 cosponsors, all members of the House. The lack of Senate action and absence of committee leadership sponsorship indicate very low momentum. The money trail: The bill text does not authorize or appropriate any funding. There is no tax credit, grant program, procurement mandate, or regulatory penalty in the bill. It is a policy bill that could, if enacted, potentially restructure how intelligence or law enforcement agencies interact with Congress, but it does not create a mechanism for private sector cash flows. No company stands to gain or lose revenue from this bill in its current form. Structural winners and losers: Because HR9098 targets government surveillance of elected officials — not commercial surveillance, cybersecurity practices, or technology procurement — there are no publicly traded companies for which this bill would produce a revenue change. The bill does not mandate any new spending on technology or services. The Executive Order on AI cybersecurity (dated the same day) is entirely unrelated — it addresses AI security in critical infrastructure, not FISA surveillance or congressional targeting. Combining them would be a factual error. Timeline: As a referred bill in the 119th Congress, HR9098 must clear the House Judiciary Committee, pass the House, then clear the Senate Judiciary Committee and the full Senate, be conference-negotiated, and be signed by the President before the end of the 119th Congress (January 2027). The median referral-to-passage time for similar organic procedural bills is >18 months. This bill has no discernible pathway to near-term enactment.
