Bush recently stated that he supports the NSA spying program, defending it as “hugely important” in keeping Americans safe. He went on to say that he “doesn’t understand the debate” over the controversial program. As Governor of Florida in 2004, he advocated for a “tracking system” to prevent prescription drug abuse, which would give the state more leverage in investigating doctors and patients. A version of his proposal eventually came to fruition through the E-FORCSE program.
