The White House (http://www.whorunsgov.com/institutions/white_house)said in a statement Tuesday that it "does not object" to extending the three Patriot Act provisions until December. However, it added, the administration "would strongly prefer" an extension until December 2013, noting that the longer timeline "provides the necessary certainty and predictability" that law enforcement agencies require while at the same time ensuring that Congress can continue to review the law's effectiveness

I thought they extended provisions recently in a regular vote and they just failed the quickvote or something?

We still do work to counteract animal attacks, so that line doesn't do much good.
