Introduced March 14, 2025 by Gabe Evans · Last progress March 14, 2025
Requires the Department of Homeland Security to run a multilingual public education campaign about transnational repression and related terrorism threats, inform victims about resources, and explain how to anonymously report suspected acts to the FBI. Directs DHS, working with its Science and Technology office, to research, develop, and operationally test technologies and techniques to improve DHS support to federal, state, local, Tribal, and territorial authorities in countering transnational repression, while protecting privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties. The research and testing work must begin no later than one year after the law takes effect and the bill adds statutory definitions for key terms used in the new authority.
