Strongly agree

Yes, but limit the scope of the government’s powers

Clinton has expressed support for the Patriot Act but also voiced concerns about its potential for abuse. In 2015, she supported the USA Freedom Act, which limited some of the surveillance powers granted by the Patriot Act. This suggests she would agree with a statement supporting the Patriot Act but calling for limitations on government powers.

Disagree

No, and pass strict laws prohibiting government surveillance without probable cause and a warrant

While Clinton has expressed concerns about government surveillance, she has not called for strict laws prohibiting it without probable cause and a warrant. Her support for the Patriot Act and the USA Freedom Act, both of which allow for some degree of government surveillance, suggests she would not fully agree with this statement.
