Shadow Wolves Improvement Act

HR 6379, the Shadow Wolves Improvement Act, amends the Homeland Security Act to establish new requirements for ICE's Shadow Wolves Program, which partners with tribal nations like the Tohono O'odham Nation. The bill requires ICE to define the program's mission, set staffing needs for special agents, create a recruitment/retention strategy with specific goals and timelines, and provide current Tactical Officers with clear details about reclassifying as special agents (including pay and training impacts). It also mandates a plan for filling vacancies due to retirements and outlines criteria for expanding the program to new tribal lands. The bill specifies no new funding is authorized for these changes and requires ICE to submit an implementation report to Congress within one year.
