This bill requires the Director of Senate Security, in coordination with the Director of National Intelligence and the Chairperson of the Suitability and Security Clearance Performance Accountability Council, to:
review whether procedures in effect enable one Senate employee designated by each Member of the Senate, who serves on specified Senate committees or subcommittees, to obtain security clearances necessary for access to classified national security information, including top secret and sensitive compartmentalized information, if the Senate employee meets the criteria for such clearances; and issue guidelines on establishment and implementation of new procedures if the Director, in coordination with the Director of National Intelligence and the Chairperson, determines current procedures are inadequate.
