Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would extend the legal authorization of the Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Office within the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Under current law, the office's authorization was tied to a date five years after the Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Act of 2018 was enacted. The bill would replace that date with February 28, 2027, so the office would remain authorized until then.
