Published: March 2, 2006

In a vote of 89 - 10, the United States Senate today overwhelmingly approved reauthorization of 16 controversial Patriot Act provisions. In the deal, 14 will become permanent, with two more requiring reauthorization in another four years.

The law now heads to President Bush to sign.

RAW STORY will make the official roll call available as soon as possible.
