Whether the President signs it or not is a different story.

He's been advised to veto it, and there's not enough support to pass it over his veto. I'm even doubtful it will pass the Senate.
And guys. being innocent - as I'm sure pretty much everyone on here is - is not a reason to support this, because it's not as if this is just going to be used against criminals. Even respected politicians have called this a "Big Brother" type act, and that's certainly not a good thing. US citizens are entitled to privacy, and that of innocent people should not be breached for just a chance at finding a few criminals.
