DHS Intelligence Rotational Assignment Program and Law Enforcement Support Act

This bill would set up a new job-rotation program inside the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for intelligence analysts. The goal is to let analysts temporarily work in different DHS intelligence offices to build skills, share knowledge, and improve teamwork across the department. DHS must launch the program within one year of the law taking effect, and it will follow the rules of DHS’s existing rotation program.

Key points:

• Who is affected: Intelligence analysts at DHS, including those in DHS intelligence components and the Secret Service’s Office of Strategic Intelligence and Information; others in DHS may join if the Secretary allows.
• What changes: A formal “Intelligence Rotational Assignment Program” lets eligible staff take temporary assignments in other DHS intelligence roles to gain experience and improve cooperation.
• When: DHS must set up the program no later than one year after the law is enacted.

For communities, this aims to make DHS intelligence work more coordinated and effective, which can support better information-sharing for public safety.
