Bill Intelligence
This bill seeks to amend the Homeland Security Act of 2002 to update the eligibility criteria and metrics for the Securing the Cities (STC) program, which supports preparedness and response against nuclear or radiological terrorist threats in high-risk urban areas. The changes will redefine the jurisdictions eligible for the program, establish new performance metrics, and enhance congressional oversight. It requires the Secretary of Homeland Security to provide a report on program participation, performance metrics, and future plans to the relevant congressional committees. If passed, the bill will impact how federal resources are allocated for urban nuclear and radiological threat preparedness and response.
