The bill requires the Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) at DHS to give equal priority to supporting state, local, tribal, and territorial governments and private businesses as it does to federal intelligence agencies. It directs I&A to watch for emerging threats, share information in both directions, stay connected with fusion centers, and ensure serving DHS leadership doesn't crowd out local support. DHS must report to Congress within 180 days on implementation and success metrics.
Affects DHS's Office of Intelligence and Analysis, local police, emergency responders, tribal governments, and private security companies.
Congress found I&A may have shifted toward collecting information from local partners for federal use rather than sharing useful information back to them, potentially affecting how well local agencies receive timely threat warnings.
