US Senators Say The CIA Is Secretly Collecting Bulk Data On Americans

The CIA has a secret, undisclosed data repository that includes information collected about Americans, two Democrats on the Senate Intelligence Committee said  

Daily Mail/AP: CIA has a secret surveillance program that has been collecting Americans' personal information for YEARS without congressional approval, Democratic Senators say 

* Democratic Senators Ron Wyden and Martin Heinrich have called for a probe 

* Have written a letter to top intelligence officials and demanded information 

* Wyden and Heinrich said the program operated 'outside the statutory framework that Congress and the public believe govern this collection'

* The Senators claim the CIA have long hidden details from the public and Congress 

The CIA has been collecting the personal information of Americans for years in a secret surveillance program that has no congressional approval, senators said late Thursday night. 

Democratic Senators Ron Wyden of Oregon and Martin Heinrich of New Mexico sent a letter to top intelligence officials calling for more details about the program to be declassified and demanded immediate action. 

The CIA also released parts of still-classified programs 'Deep Dive I and Deep Dive II', which are believed to be massive data repositories.
