Summary

Intelligence Oversight Amendments of 1987 - Amends the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 to require the President to make a written finding that a Central Intelligence Agency operation in a foreign country (other than an intelligence gathering operation) is important to the national security and to furnish a copy of that finding, before the start of such operation, to specified Members of Congress and the Vice President, the Secretaries of State and of Defense, and the Director of Central Intelligence. Amends the National Security Act of 1947 to permit deferral of notice to the Congress of such intelligence activity for not more than 48 hours only in extraordinary circumstances affecting vital U.S. interests and only where time is of the essence.
