Regular Homeland Security reports on ally terror threats
The Department of Homeland Security would deliver a classified terror‑threat assessment on each major non‑NATO ally within 180 days of enactment, then every two years. DHS would consult the Secretary of State and the Director of National Intelligence and would brief the House and Senate homeland security committees. Each report would list terrorist groups and sanctioned individuals in each ally and describe their actions, including use of artificial intelligence and other new technologies. It would explain what the ally is doing and any cooperation with U.S. intelligence. It would rate DHS’s ability to track and reduce threats, block members from entering the United States, and list any added resources needed. Any Member of Congress would be able to request the classified report.
