DHS Joint Task Forces Reauthorization Act of 2024

Sponsored By: Senator Peters, Gary C. [D-MI]

Became Law

Summary

More oversight and staffing transparency for DHS Joint Task Forces, especially Joint Task Force‑East. The law requires each Joint Task Force to adopt a staffing plan and report progress on outcome-based performance metrics in a consolidated annual report due by December 23, 2024, and annually thereafter.

Show full summary
  • Congress and oversight: Key Senate and House committees receive the consolidated annual report and an annual briefing from the Secretary that covers JTF‑East staffing, resources, and plans to address any shortfalls.
  • DHS leadership and Joint Task Forces: Each JTF must produce a staffing plan, show progress on outcome-based and other performance metrics, and explain any mission or goal changes and the rationale.
  • Budgeting and planning: The law does not authorize new funding but requires cost, timeline, and strategy details when staffing or resources are insufficient to inform future budget decisions.

*This law does not authorize new funding and therefore does not directly increase federal spending.*
