S 5319 United States Senate · 118th Congress

DHS Intelligence and Analysis Oversight and Transparency Act

This bill requires the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to conduct an annual audit of its Intelligence and Analysis Office's information systems and bulk data. The audit must follow intelligence oversight guidelines, and the DHS Under Secretary for Intelligence must submit findings to specific congressional committees (Homeland Security and Intelligence committees in both House and Senate) within 30 days. It directly affects DHS's Intelligence and Analysis Office and the designated congressional committees by adding a mandatory transparency requirement for existing data practices. The bill does not change DHS operations but mandates regular reporting to Congress about how the office manages its systems and data.
