AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Attorney General, the FBI Director, and, as appropriate, the head of the National Counterterrorism Center to report to six congressional committees after each act of terrorism in the United States. Each report would be due within 1 year after the main investigating agency finishes its investigation, must be unclassified (with an optional classified section), and must be posted on a public website. Reports would state the known facts, identify security gaps, and list recommendations, including possible changes to law or law enforcement practices. Officials could withhold information that could harm an ongoing investigation or prosecution but must notify the committees, and the requirement would end 5 years after enactment.
