Requires the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Attorney General, and the Secretary of State to produce a joint assessment (within 180 days) of how transnational criminal organizations use social media and related online services for recruitment and illicit activity, and to deliver a joint strategy (within one year) to stop U.S.-based recruitment through those services. The law defines covered services and illicit activities, mandates broad interagency and external consultation, requires civil-rights and privacy assessments and rulemaking before implementation, clarifies it does not expand agency authorities, and forbids any new appropriations to carry out the Act.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.
