This bill would require certain Diplomatic Security special agents who work at high‑threat U.S. embassies and consulates overseas to complete extra, mandatory counterintelligence training. The goal is to help them spot and stop spying, recruitment attempts, and other threats while protecting U.S. people and facilities abroad. It updates an older diplomatic security law to add this specific training requirement for these higher‑risk posts.

Key points

• Who is affected: Diplomatic Security special agents assigned to high‑threat posts overseas.
• What changes: Adds required, specific counterintelligence training for those agents.
• Why it matters: Aims to strengthen security by preparing agents to detect and counter spying and related threats in dangerous locations.
