AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the Department of Homeland Security to send Congress a yearly threat analysis, starting within 180 days, about known visits by foreign nationals who seek to meet with state, local, Tribal, or territorial officials or gain access to their information, facilities, programs, or systems. The department would also share guidance based on that analysis with those governments. If the department identifies a particular official or site as a high-risk target, it would contact that government, help vet the foreign visitor, and give advice on reducing threats. The department would request a debriefing within 30 days after such a visit and report yearly to Congress on its outreach and vetting help.
