The National Security Agency (NSA) has reportedly ended a program that analyzes logs of domestic calls and texts made by Americans.

Murry told the Times during a Lawfare podcast that the Trump administration “hasn’t actually been using it for the past six months."

“I’m actually not certain that the administration will want to start that back up,” Murry reportedly added.

The NSA on Monday declined to comment to the Times. A spokesman for McCarthy's office told the newspaper that Murry “was not speaking on behalf of administration policy or what Congress intends to do on this issue.”

The program was originally launched by former President George W. Bush as part of an effort to find terrorists following the 2001 terrorist attacks, according to the Times.

Former NSA contractor and whistleblower Ed Snowden disclosed the existence of the program in 2013.

The program collected more than 530 million U.S. call records in 2017.
